Patient's question:
I am pregnant for the first time, and now the baby is 26W+. After an examination, it was found that there is a cystic mass from the right armpit to the right chest wall. The doctor said it might be a lymphatic cyst. Additionally, the fetus has hydrocephalus with measurements of 1.1CM and 1.4CM, and an abortion has already been recommended. While I am heartbroken, I also want to know what could have caused this? Can we still have another child? Could you give me some advice? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Fetal lymphatic cyst is a type of fetal malformation that cannot be treated and may be accompanied by multiple other malformations.Advice: Hydrocephalus may be related to genetics, infection, environment, and other factors, and the exact cause cannot be accurately determined. It is recommended to undergo prenatal examinations during the next pregnancy.
