Please clarify the lesion found in the ultrasound of my 18 week fetus.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com. I have been through the report posted (attachment removed to protect patient identity). An anechoic lesion defines a lesion that is clear and simple that means, the cyst visualized is a simple cyst. There are some cysts like a mesenteric cyst, omental cyst or neuroblastoma ovarian cysts in female fetus and so on. Enteric duplication cyst, a rare congenital anomaly within the gastrointestinal tract, is suggested as the likely diagnosis due to observed peristaltic movements and their intra-abdominal location. Notably, no concurrent anomalies are associated. To preempt potential complications, a recommended course of action involves consistent monitoring and scheduling surgical excision subsequent to delivery.
