Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am 13 weeks pregnant. My nuchal translucency report read 'small linear septum noted along the left lateral aspect of gestational sac synechia, and no fetal part is seen near the septum.' What does this mean? Is it a critical problem? Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

This is not inside the fetus. This will not harm the fetus. If this has not troubled your pregnancy till now, it should not trouble you in future also. But, if it troubles, then it might lead to a miscarriage. Nothing can be done for the same at present.

Thanks.
