Abstrakt: This article, titled "EP06.29: Sonographic imaging of the fetal anus at early pregnancy: a prospective feasibility study," discusses a study that aimed to assess the feasibility of imaging the fetal anus and determining normal anal canal anatomy between 12 and 17 weeks of gestation. The study involved scanning the fetus in the midsagittal infracoccygeal plane to visualize the anal canal. The results showed that the integrity of the anal canal can be seen as early as 12 weeks of gestation, allowing for early diagnosis of anorectal malformations. The study concluded that this method offers potential benefits in detecting such malformations. [Extracted from the article]
