Question: Iam 11.5 week pregnant i underwent NT scan on this firday the result is showing as prominent lateral ventricle my doc said the report is normal. But iam worried by this word lateral ventricle is this is any sign of disorder in my baby. Please help me out

Answer: Hi Please do get the repeat scan done. It will help your doctor monitor the ventricle size. Based on the growth or size of ventricle your doctor may advise further tests like fetal MRI. If it is mildly enlarged without associated complications then there is a possibility to resolve on its own. however in severe cases it could lead to neurological problems if not treated timely. Certain procedures may be required to be done after birth too with help of neurosurgeons

Answer: Hi dear, NT scan report upto 3 mm considered normal with low risk of chromosomal abnormalities. Your result is quite lower than that so definitely chances of abnormalty will be less but if there is any doubt then you doctor may ask you for dual marker test. When Placenta attaches to the anterior wall of the uterus that is towards your tummy its anterior Placenta and it is absolutely normal. Don't worry.

Answer: hi dear! if lateral ventricle measure more than 10mm then it is a problem it is help considered as ventriculomegaly dear. so right now dont worry dear. take care.
