Treatment of Polyhydramnios with Indomethacin

Clinics in Perinatology, 1994
Polyhydramnios detected in a pregnancy should always be investigated thoroughly. We believe chromosomal abnormalities should be excluded, but that determination need not delay therapy. Indomethacin has been shown to reduce amniotic fluid volume in certain cases, but a strict monitoring schedule should be followed whenever it is administered.

Animal model for polyhydramnios

Chronic intravenous infusion of angiotensin 1 [182 micrograms/(kg.day)] into fetal lambs caused gross polyhydramnios. Infusions of comparable volumes of vehicle or lower concentrations of angiotensin 1 [48 micrograms/(kg.day)] did not cause gross polyhydramnios.

Polyhydramnios in Anencephaly

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1966
In a newborn infant with esophageal stenosis and atresia extending 9 cm, the amniotic fluid volume was found to be normal, yet this infant could not possibly have swallowed. In a case of anencephaly in which the infant had partial esophageal atresia and stenosis extending 1 cm, the infant swallowed sodium diatrizoate (Hypaque Sodium) injected into the ...
