DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF FETAL VOLUMES BY ULTRASONIC EXAMINATION

Abdominal and pelvic masses in fetuses account for approximately 10 % of all fetal formations visualized during prenatal ultrasound screening. Differential diagnosis in these cases typically presents a diagnostic dilemma due to the wide variety of possible diagnoses and differing courses during the intrauterine and neonatal 188 periods. To identify the most diagnostically significant ultrasound and Doppler features of fetal anomalies that lead to disproportion, an analysis of the ultrasound images from 117 cases of ovarian cysts in fetuses, 24 prenatally diagnosed sacrococcygeal teratomas, and 39 cases of spina bifida was conducted. Based on the analysis of clinical material, a list of ultrasound and Doppler signs for these developmental anomalies has been developed, enabling differential diagnosis
