What are the effects of hydrocephalus detected by color Doppler ultrasound in the fetus's brain?

Patient's question:

When getting a color Doppler ultrasound, it was found that there was water in the baby's brain, 7 millimeters. Treatment history and effectiveness: No treatment has been done. What kind of help do you want: Will the baby be healthy in the future?

Doctor's answer:

Hello: If the fetus has hydrocephalus, it is a type of fetal malformation, which is related to many factors, such as fetal factors, maternal factors, placental factors, etc. Currently, the exact cause cannot be determined. It is recommended that you undergo a comprehensive pre-pregnancy examination before planning another pregnancy to rule out adverse physical factors and ensure a safe pregnancy. A 4D ultrasound can directly observe the limbs and internal organs of the fetus, providing a three-dimensional display of the development of each organ, allowing for the early detection of some congenital malformations. In this case, if an abnormal accumulation of fluid is found in the fetus's abdomen now, it is still advisable to consider an induced abortion.
