ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To construct reference ranges of the fetal cerebral anterior complex, including ventricular index (VI), anterior horn of lateral ventricle width (AW), and cavum septi pellucidi (CSP) width, as a function of gestational age (GA), in Thai fetuses.

METHODS:

Low-risk pregnancies were recruited to measure fetal anterior complex on axial transventricular and coronal transcaudate planes using transabdominal ultrasound. The downside and upside hemisphere were defined as cerebral hemisphere located distal and proximal to the transducer, respectively. The five variables, downside/upside VI, downside/upside AW and CSP width, were measured from each fetus. Best-fit models in predicting mean and standard deviation for each value as a function of GA were constructed, using regression analysis. Distributions of Z-scores of all values based on GA were created to evaluate the fitness of models. Intraclass correlation coefficients were used to assess inter-/intraobserver variability.

RESULTS:

A total of 395 fetuses were measured for anterior complex. All parameters changed with GA with quadratic function. The models for predicting means and standard deviation of the five parameters as well as percentile charts were created. All models were proven well-fitted. The intra-/interobserver reliability coefficients of all values showed excellent agreement.

CONCLUSION:

The reference ranges of the fetal anterior complex, including VI, AW, and CSP, in axial transventricular and coronal transcaudate planes have been established and available for clinical use.
