Patient's question:
I have a cleft lip and palate myself, but there is no family history. I underwent a thorough chromosomal examination before getting pregnant, and everything was fine. My husband is healthy and has not had a thorough chromosomal examination. I am 24 weeks pregnant, and yesterday I had a 4D ultrasound. They suspected a cleft lip and asked me to come back in 30 minutes for a second check. Later, they said it was intermittent bilateral cleft lip. I want to ask if the 4D ultrasound could have been a misdiagnosis?Doctor's answer:
General 4D ultrasound examination can clearly determine whether there is a cleft lip and palate, with a very low misdiagnosis rate. If there is a small fissure, there may be a missed diagnosis. If you don't believe it, you can certainly go to another hospital for a 4D examination to see. You can also view the 4D images for yourself, and the 4D images themselves can also be understood. In addition to timely treatment with 4D color Doppler ultrasound, patients also need to pay attention to diet, such as eating properly and maintaining a happy mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a Class A hospital for treatment, so as to obtain good treatment effects.
