At GMS Mangal Diagnostics, a routine Level II Anomaly Scan revealed a critical finding: the presence of fetal hydrocephalus, characterized by an abnormal and harmful accumulation of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) deep within the fetal brain. This excess fluid caused the brain's ventricles (cavities) to widen, putting pressure on developing brain tissues. Hydrocephalus, which can be congenital and linked to factors like neural tube defects or genetic conditions, is often missed without detailed scanning. Dr. Agarwal's precise diagnosis during this crucial scan window highlights the essential value of the Level II Anomaly Scan in identifying such serious fetal anomalies at an early stage. This timely detection is paramount, allowing the managing team and parents to immediately consult specialists, plan the optimal delivery, and arrange for necessary postnatal management and intervention.
