More Information
Summary:Fetal pleural effusion has been reported to be associated with chromosomal abnormalities, genetic syndromes, obstructive uropathy, lymphatic vessel abnormalities such as Noonan syndrome, RASopathy and congenital lymphatic anomalies, thoracic cavity defects, Rh or ABO incompatibility, non-immune hydrops fetalis, infections, congenital cardiac anomalies, metabolic diseases and hematologic diseases such as α-thalassemia. This review provides an overview of syndromic and single gene disorders associated with fetal pleural effusion that is useful for genetic counseling and fetal therapy at prenatal diagnosis of fetal pleural effusion.
