Question : Madam
Further to previous conversation.
Now my wife is pregnant of 12 week 5 days.
Today first trimester scan is done & reports is attached.
The noteworthy point as told by doctor is
1) Single Umbilical artery.
2) Hypoplastic nasal bone.
He told that finding may be associated with chromosomal abonormalities or could be normal & requires further investigation.
Option of first trimester combined screening;NIPS; CVS/ aminocentesis ; TIFFA scan.Risk of downs syndrome.
He said there is two vein near head instead of three.
I am very worried.
Please advise further course of action/ 2nd advise.

Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting us about your healthcare.
I have gone through your history and reports and understand your concern.
As with your report there is a risk of down syndrome and other chromosomal abnormalities in your case.
So you must go for CVS,amniocentesis, triple marker test and second level ultrasound for foetal well being.
Hope found useful, feel free to ask more information.
Good luck

1) NIPS test
2) CVS/aminocentesis
I think I should repeat first trimester screening reports again in another multispeciality hospital ( 2nd opinion) & side by side confirmatory test also be considered.
Please suggest.
At present wife is 12 week 9 day pregnancy.How long I go for D& C ; so that safer for mother.
My first child is 7 years old & healthy then how 2nd baby is supposed to be suffering down syndromes.
My wife age is 33 yrs.
2) CVS/aminocentesis

Brief Answer:
You should go for confirmatory test.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Sorry for the delay in my response.
In my point of view, you must get her confirmatory test in a multispeciality hospital, there is no need to go for previous test again because only these test shows probability of down syndrome not confirm it.
Abortion can only be done when confirmation of down syndrome is established .

madam
In ultrasound following point raised during first trimester NT scan
1) Single Umbilical artery ;- means one artery & one vein otherwise there are two artery & one vein normally.but it is rarely problem associated with congenital abnormalities & chromosomal defect in fetus.In NT scan general growth is fine.Double marker test result awaited,depending on probability i may proceed for NIPT.
2)Hypo plastic nasal bone. :- Means growth of nasal bone is not up to mark however i feel sonographer may not able to see the all view or scenario will be more clear in second trimester scan
i think i should not be panic as discussed with my family doctor.
please suggest & explain what is hypoplastic nasal bone means.

Brief Answer:
Hypoplastic or small nasal bone.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
I have gone through your observations in detail and understand your concern fully.
Hypoplastic nasal bone means absent or small nasal bone and it is highly indicative of chances of down syndrome in foetus.
So you must go for amniocentesis in foetus.
