AI Article Synopsis
- - Maternal status epilepticus can lead to fetal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, which is a condition where the fetal brain doesn't get enough oxygen.
- - This lack of oxygen can cause acute polyhydramnios, which is an excess of amniotic fluid due to the fetus having difficulty swallowing.
- - Therefore, when acute polyhydramnios is observed, it may indicate underlying fetal dysphagia linked to hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.
Article Abstract
Maternal status epilepticus can cause fetal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy that in turn results in acute polyhydramnios caused by fetal dysphagia; thus, acute polyhydramnios is a symptom that should lead to a suspicion of fetal dysphagia caused by hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.
