Fetal cerebral ventriculomegaly: What do we tell the prospective parents?

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, Volume 42, Issue 13, Page 1674-1681, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Fetal cerebral ventriculomegaly is a relatively common finding, observed during approximately 1% of obstetric ultrasounds. In the second and third trimester, mild (≥10 mm) and severe ventriculomegaly (≥15 mm) are defined according to the measurement of distal lateral ventricles that is included in the routine sonographic examination of central
