Basics of Fetal Medicine

Topics Discussed in the Lecture:

1. First Trimester Fetal Evaluation: Key Concepts and Indicators

• Daily growth timeline of 1 mm for Crown-Rump Length (CRL)
• Understanding and monitoring increased Nuchal Translucency (NT) at 10 weeks
• The Nasal Bone to Prenasal Thickness (NB:PNT) Ratio as a marker for Down Syndrome
• Intracranial translucency and the double line sign as indicators of mid-sagittal fetal brain development
• Interpreting tricuspid regurgitation and ductus venosus waveforms
• Frontomaxillary angle, inferior facial angle, and other soft craniofacial markers
• Risk calculation based on markers (NT, NB, DV, TR) using specialized software

 2. First Trimester Biochemical Screening and Integration

• Double marker test (β-hCG, PAPP-A)
• Enhanced or quadruple marker tests (including PlGF, AFP)
• Comparing sequential and combined screening strategies
• How to assess risk using multiple testing methods

3. Second Trimester Soft Markers of Aneuploidy (SMFA)

• Nine major markers to note:
• Unossified nasal bone
• Ventriculomegaly
• Thickened nuchal fold
• Aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA)
• Echogenic bowel
• Pyelectasia
• Echogenic intracardiac focus
• Short femur
• Short humerus
• Grouping markers by body region and likelihood ratios (6.5 to 1)

4. TIFFA Scan and Comprehensive Fetal Organ Review

                      CNS evaluation: Examining axial, coronal, and sagittal brain structures
                                                          

• Key features: CSP, corpus callosum, vermis, sulci, and fissures
• Anterior and posterior brain complexes
• 21 neurosonographic assessment parameters

Face evaluation: Nasal bone, jaw, lips, chin, palates, and craniofacial angles
Cardiac screening:

• Checking abdominal situs, 4CH view, 3VT, RVOT, LVOT
• Utilizing 3D/AI-enhanced imaging
• Circle & sausage view, hammock view, great artery arches
  Lungs & Thorax: Embryonic development, recognizing CPAMs and diaphragmatic hernias
  Gastrointestinal tract review: Examining stomach, jejunum, colon, esophagus, and  anel canal
  Genitourainary system evaluation: Kidneys, adrenals, bladder, umbilical arteries, and genitailia
  Limbs & Spine assessment: Long bones, digits, ossification centers, conus medullaris
  5. Fetal Growth Restriction (FGR) and Doppler-Based Monitoring (Gratacós Chart)
• Differentiating between SGA and FGR
• Stages of FGR (1 to 4) with related Doppler changes:
• Umbilical artery, MCA, aortic isthmus, ductus venosus, uterine artery
• Timeline of Doppler abnormalities in early vs late FGR
• Management protocols according to gestational age and Doppler results
  6. Counseling, Invasive Procedures & Genetic Testing
• Procedures such as chorionic villus sampling (CVS), amniocentesis, and cordocentesis
• Preparation before procedures and care afterward
• Available genetic tests: karyotype, FISH, microarray, WES
• Diagnostic and therapeutic interventions
• Essential legal forms (Forms D, F, G) and documentation requirements
  7. Tips to Avoid Common Mistakes
• Reporting cord around the neck from a medicolegal standpoint
• Understanding normal variations (e.g., echogenic kidneys and calcaneal ossification)
• The importance of thorough documentation in TIFFA scans
• Choosing between software options like FMF versus Sonocare
   

• What You Will Gain from the Lecture:

  • A comprehensive protocol for assessing fetuses in the first and second trimesters

  • Insight into utilizing biochemical and imaging markers effectively

  • Skills in Doppler monitoring and staging FGR

  • Confidence in counseling families and making informed decisions following abnormal findings
