polyhydramnios

In addition to obstructing the airway, these giant neck masses can compress the esophagus, resulting in polyhydramnios, which can lead to uterine irritability and preterm labor.

Giant Neck Masses (GNM), Cervical Teratoma 2010

Esophageal compression by the thoracic mass causes interference with fetal swallowing of amniotic fluid and results in polyhydramnios.

Bronchopulmonary sequestration and Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid 2010

By 25 weeks, polyhydramnios and placentomegaly were noted.

However, SCT can lead to serious problems in the fetus, including fetal hydrops (heart failure), polyhydramnios (too much amniotic fluid) ro premature delivery.

SCT -- Warmington-Fluharty 2010

If the giant neck mass grows to obstruct the esophagus causing polyhydramnios, issues with preterm labor must be addressed.

The discrepancy in size can be due to a massive tumor or to polyhydramnios.

They are, however, serious conditions that can result in complications ranging from breathing or eating difficulties after birth to polyhydramnios, a build up of amniotic fluid in the womb.

However, prenatally diagnosed Sacrococcygeal Teratoma or Sacrococcygeal Tumor associated with hydrops can be rapidly fatal in-utero or may lead to polyhydramnios and premature delivery.

However, prenatally diagnosed sacrococcygeal teratoma associated with fetal hydrops can be rapidly fatal in-utero or can lead to polyhydramnios and premature delivery.
