  • This video shows a Twin Pregnancy of about 21 weeks, with one fetus normal and the other with Hydrops Fetalis.
    Hydrops fetalis is a condition in the fetus characterized by an accumulation of fluid, or edema, in at least two fetal compartments. By comparison, hydrops allantois or hydrops amnion is an accumulation of excessive fluid in the allantoic or amniotic space, respectively.
    Hydrops fetalis is severe swelling (edema) in an unborn baby or a newborn baby. It is a life-threatening problem. Hydrops develops when too much fluid leaves the baby's bloodstream and goes into the tissues. Treatment of hydrops depends on the cause. About 50% of unborn babies with hydrops don't survive.
    Hydrops due to chromosomal abnormalities is usually detected during early pregnancy, whereas cardiac causes are detected in the second or third trimester. Hence, a detailed prenatal workup should be done in suspected cases.
    Hydrops fetalis (fetal hydrops) is a severe fetal condition defined as the abnormal accumulation of fluid in two or more fetal compartments, including ascites, pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, and skin edema. In some patients, it may also be associated with polyhydramnios and placental edema.
    Nonimmune hydrops fetalis occurs when a disease or medical condition disrupts the body's ability to manage fluid. There are three leading causes for this type: heart or lung problems, severe anemia (thalassemia), and genetic defects, including Turner syndrome. The exact cause depends on which form a baby has.
    Non-immune hydrops fetalis is an uncommon but serious disorder associated with an overall poor prognosis, characterized by abnormal fluid accumulation in two or more fetal serous compartments, together with generalized soft tissue edema.
    Hydrops usually will rapidly become fatal for your baby if left untreated. An infant/fetus with hydrops is severely compromised. The earlier in the pregnancy the diagnosis is made, the worse the prognosis is. Some babies with hydrops may even die before they are born.
    Sonographic features can be similar for both immune and non-immune hydrops and include increased amniotic fluid volumes. increased nuchal translucency (especially 1st trimester 5) larger placental size (placentomegaly) / increased placental thickness (placental edema).
    Stress-related changes in a pregnant woman's heart rate and blood pressure, along with chronic anxiety, can affect the heart rate of her developing fetus, a new study concludes.
    Usually, the earliest a baby can survive is about 22 weeks gestation. The age of viability is 24 weeks. At 22 weeks, there's a 0-10% chance of survival; at 24 weeks the survival rate is 40-70%.
    If your baby has a birth defect, it increases the likelihood that it will develop hydrops fetalis. Liver disease. If your child has liver problems, it often shows up as jaundice (yellowing of skin and eyes) swelling in the abdomen, fever, and pain.
    Causes of hydrops fetalis
    Hemolytic disease of the newborn.
    Severe anemia.
    Infections present at birth.
    Heart or lung defects.
    Chromosomal abnormalities and birth defects.
    Liver disease.
    The prognosis for babies with hydrops fetalis depends on the underlying cause of the condition. Overall, however, the survival rate is low. More than half of all babies with the state die before birth or soon after delivery.
    Babies born with hydrops fetalis may also have underdeveloped lungs and be at a higher risk of: heart failure. brain damage. hypoglycemia.
    The outlook for hydrops fetalis depends on the underlying condition, but even with treatment, the survival rate for the baby is low. Only about 20 percent of babies diagnosed with hydrops fetalis before birth will survive delivery, and of those babies, only half will survive after delivery.
    Hydrops can occur if the developing baby's organs can't overcome the anemia. The heart starts to fail. Large amounts of fluid build up in the baby's tissues and organs. This type of hydrops is not common today because Rh-negative women are usually treated with Rh immunoglobulin to prevent this problem.
    In conclusion, even a rare case of fetal ascites can be managed successfully. Fetal ascites is commonly considered as a part or precursor of fetal hydrops, which have various etiologies.
    A pleural effusion is an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the chest cavity. As the fluid increases, it can limit the development of the lungs and compromise the heart's function. Causes of pleural effusion may include chromosome abnormalities, heart conditions, lung problems, or abnormal lymph drainage.
    Immune hydrops fetalis is no longer very common due to advances in the prevention of hemolytic disease in newborns. Non-immune hydrops fetalis occurs in approximately one of every 1,000 births. About half of unborn babies with hydrops fetalis do not survive.
    Serial ultrasound examinations should be performed every 1 to 2 weeks for 8 to 12 weeks after exposure.
