Limitations of middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity in the detection of severe anaemia: A case report
Doppler examination of the fetal middle cerebral artery (MCA) is considered highly reliable in detecting severe fetal anaemia. We present a case of a mother with severe pre-eclampsia at 32 weeks’ gestation and non-immune fetal hydrops without obvious cause. Since the MCA peak systolic velocity (PS...
