Aim: To evaluate the fetal aortic isthmus (AoI) diameter and flow in pregnant women diagnosed with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP).
Methods: In this prospective case-control study, fetal AoI diameter and Doppler measurements were performed in the ICP group (n: 30) and the control group (n: 42). Clinical characteristics, fetal AoI diameter and Doppler measurements, serum bile acid levels, liver enzyme levels, and obstetric and perinatal outcomes were compared between the groups.

Background: The clinical manifestations of PI4KA-related disorders are characterized by considerable variability, predominantly featuring neurological impairments, gastrointestinal symptoms, and a combined immunodeficiency. The aim of this study was to delineate the novel spectrum of PI4KA variants detected prenatally and to assess their influence on fetal development.
Methods: A thorough fetal ultrasound screening was conducted, supplemented by both antenatal and post-abortion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies.

Background: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common fetal malformation, and it can result first in cardiac remodeling and dysfunction and later in cardiac failure and hydrops. A limited number of studies have evaluated cardiac function in fetuses affected by CHD. Functional parameters could potentially identify fetuses at risk of cardiac failure before its development.

Purpose: To investigate fetal cardiac functions and remodeling in pregnancies conceived via in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Methods: This prospective case-control study included 40 singleton IVF pregnancies and 46 uncomplicated control pregnancies at 28-36 weeks of gestation. The IVF group consisted of pregnancies applied to the outpatient clinic, excluding those with anatomical or chromosomal abnormalities.

Background/purpose: Fetal hilar cyst is primarily diagnosed as two diseases after birth, cystic biliary atresia (CBA) and choledochal cyst (CC). The aim of our study was to explore more reliable indicators in early differential diagnosis of these cysts.
Methods: We recruited a total of 50 cases with a prenatal diagnosis of hepatic cyst at three centers, and patients were divided into a CBA group (n = 16) and CC group (n = 34) according to postnatal intraoperative diagnosis.
