Patient's question:

At 6 months of pregnancy, an ultrasound revealed widening of the fetal septum pellucidum. Is there a high chance of encountering the same issue in a subsequent pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Normal transparent septal cavity is not more than 10mm. The measurement of your baby during ultrasound was 12mm, which is slightly wider theoretically, but there is no need to worry because the measurement error caused by the ultrasound doctor also needs to be considered. 2mm is really a very small difference, as long as the section is not aligned properly, it is possible to measure a bit more!
