Patient's question:
My wife had a 4D ultrasound at the hospital 1 week ago.Partial ultrasound data is as follows:
Gestational age: 32 weeks
Biparietal diameter: 7.8 cm
Lateral ventricle anterior horn: Left 0.8 cm, Right 0.3 cm; Body: Left 1.3 cm, Right 0.8 cm; Posterior horn: Left 1.2 cm, Right 0.7 cm.
5 weeks ago ultrasound data is as follows:
Gestational age: 27 weeks
Biparietal diameter: 6.7 cm
Lateral ventricle anterior horn: Left 1.0 cm, Right 0.5 cm; Body: Left 1.2 cm, Right 1.0 cm; Posterior horn
Doctor's answer:
Cannot be confirmed as hydrocephalus, it can be observed. You can now have an abdominal X-ray plain film examination. If the radiograph shows signs such as a large head, thin bone, wide cranial sutures, large fontanelles, and relatively smaller face, then hydrocephalus can be diagnosed.
