Exploring hemodynamic alterations in gastroschisis: insights into fetal growth restriction using prenatal MRI

Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Despite the high incidence of fetal growth restriction (FGR) in gastroschisis (GS) associated with placental fetal vascular malperfusion (FVM), the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We aimed to investigate whether umbilical vein (UV) stenosis at the abdominal wall defect impairs fetoplacental circulation, leading to FGR.
