Increased nuchal translucency with normal karyotype

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2005
Increased fetal nuchal translucency (NT) thickness between 11 and 14 weeks' gestation is a common phenotypic expression of chromosomal abnormalities, including trisomy 21. However, even in the absence of aneuploidy, nuchal thickening is clinically relevant because it is associated with an increase in adverse perinatal outcome caused by a variety of ...

Nuchal Translucency and Congenital Heart Defects. [PDF]

Curr Cardiol Rev
Abstract: Nuchal translucency comprises a temporary accumulation of fluid in the subcutaneous tissue on the back of a fetus’s neck, which accompanies the crown-rump length and is observed through an ultrasound performed between 11 and 13 weeks + 6 days gestation. Nuchal translucency is considered to be above normal when values are higher than the 95th/
