Q

Sonographic evaluation of normal thorax: What should it include?

A

examined in both trans and coronal or parasagittal planes

thoracic cavity is symmetrically bell-shaped: with the ribs forming the lateral margins, the clavicles forming the upper margins, and the diaphragm forming the lower margins

lungs serve as the lateral borders for the heart and lie superior to the diaphragm

midgut grows faster than the abdominal cavity at this stage because of the increased size of the liver and kidneys

34
Q

What is omphalocele?

A

omphalocele with only bowel has a higher risk for chromosomal abnormalities and other anomalies

35

midline anterior ventral wall defect

defect of the apical pericardium with communication into the peritoneum

internal cardiac defect

37
Q

What is gastroschisis?

A

occurs more frequently in males

located to the right of normal cord insertion

MSAFP levels are significantly elevated

38
Q

What is the prognosis with gastroschisis?

A

excellent

39
Q

What is the most dramatic finding in ectopia cordis?

A

heart is outside the thoracic cavity

40
Q
