Q

IPKD is autosomal recessive. T/F?

A

true

24
Q

4 types of IPKD?

A
  1. perinatal
  2. neonatal
  3. infantile
  4. juvenile
25
Q

what is perinatal IPKD?

A

when renals fail in the fetal period

26
Q

what is neonatal IPKD?

A

renals start failing in the 1st month of life – death in the 1st year

27
Q

what is infantile IPKD?

A

renals start failing within 3-6 months of life

28
Q

what is juvenile IPKD?

A

renal issues between 1-5 yo & there is less renal involvement

29
Q

why are the renals hyperechoic with IPKD?

A

many microscopic cysts give acoustic enhancement

30
Q

US appearance of IPKD?

A
  • bilateral enlarged homogenous hyperechoic kidneys
  • severe oligohydramnios
  • UB not seen
31
Q

what is the most common renal dysplasia?

multicystic dysplastic kidney

32
Q

multicystic dysplastic kidney is unilateral. T/F?

A

true

33
Q

is multicystic dysplastic kidney autosomal recessive or dominant?

A

dominant

34
Q

how do the lungs and amniotic fluid look with multicystic dysplastic kidney?

A

normal – one kidney is functioning properly

35
Q

associations of multicystic dysplastic kidney?

A

an abnormality with the contralateral kidney

36
Q

US appearance of multicystic dysplastic kidney?

A

many large anechoic cysts
largest cyst is not centered
malformed kidney shape

37
Q

differential dx of multicystic dysplastic kidney?

A

hydronephrosis (with frozen image)

38
Q

what is fetal hydrocele?

A

fluid around fetal testes

39
Q

GI tract abnormalities are associated with poly or oligohydramnios?

A

polyhydramnios

40
Q

what is duodenal atresia?

A

there is a blockage of the duodenal lumen, leading to dilation of duodenum & stomach, backing up amniotic fluid

41
Q

US appearance of duodenal atresia?

A

double bubble sign

42
Q

3 conditions duodenal atresia is associated with?

A
  1. VACTERL
  2. down’s syndrome (21)
  3. bowel malrotation (annular pancreas)
43
Q

definition of fetal hydrops?

A

excessive accumulation of clear, watery fluid in any tissues/cavities

44
Q

US signs for fetal hydrops? (AAPPPPHHS)

A

ascites
anasarca
pleural effusion
pulmonary effusion
polyhydramnios
placentamegaly
hepatosplenomegaly
hydropic umbilical cord
scalp edema

45
Q

2 types of fetal hydrops?

A
  1. non-immune fetal hydrops
  2. immune fetal hydrops
46
Q

most common cause of NIFH?

A

cardiovascular abnormalities

47
Q

2nd most common cause of NIFH?

A

chromosomal abnormalities

48
Q

the outcome for NIFH depends on ___

A

underlying causes

49
Q

what is the most common cause of IFH?

A

Rh disease/fetal blood incompatibility/Rh incompatible/rhizoimmunization

50
Q

are most people Rh+ or Rh-?

A

Rh+

51
Q

with Rh disease, mom has Rh_ & baby has Rh_

A

mom = Rh-
fetus = Rh+

52
Q

what happens with IFH

A

if there is a mixing of blood bw mom & fetus –> mom exposed to Rh antigen –> mom makes Ab against it –> attacks fetus RBC through placenta –> fetal anemia, CHF, hydrops

53
Q

5 effects to the fetus with IFH

A
  1. jaundice
  2. anemia
  3. brain damage
  4. heart failure
  5. death
54
Q

if the fetus has mild hemolytic disease, what is the treatment?

A

no prenatal tx needed

55
Q

if the fetus has moderate hemolytic disease, what is the tx?

A

1 prenatal transfusion & neonatal tx with multiple transfusions

56
Q

if the fetus has severe hemolytic disease, what is the tx?
