Sir/Madam My wife is 34 wk pregnancy. to day i done her USG .Doctor told umbilical cord one artery seen. i want to know what are the complications may be and also my wife has Rh negative.WWW.WWWW.WW
Hi, thanks for writing.. Single umbilical artery can be a normal variant. Also it is seen associated with congenital anomalies of heart, GI tract or nervous system. Increasing maternal age and diabetes is associated with SUA. So get a high level ultrasound to rule out anomalies and fetal echocardiogram. Get a diabetic checkup of the mother. If all are normal it can be a normal variant. Hope i have answered your query. Good day..
