Background: In pediatric neurology, Fetal ultrasonography is an useful diagnostic tool. Study of the anterior complex, namely the cavum septum pellucidum. Methods: A total of 106 participants with a gestational age of 20-30 weeks were enrolled. They all evaluated characteristics of the anterior complex by ultrasonographic examination. Results: In our study a total of 106 pregnant women were included, with 58 male fetuses and 48 female fetuses. The mean age of the women participating in the study was 29.7 ± 5.21 years old. In our study among the studied CSPs, 97 cases were rectangular (91.5%) and 9 cases were triangular (8.5%). The mean and standard deviation for the area in the rectangular CSP was 33.04±10.54 mm2 and in the triangular CSP was 21.05±4.18 mm2. In our study, the mean and standard deviation of length to width ratio of CSP was 1.98±0.31. In our study, the mean and standard deviation of length to width ratio of CSP was 1.98±0.31. In all cases where the CSP was triangular-shaped, the triangle's base was observed anteriorly (anterior based). In the implicit evaluation of the geometric dimensions and shape of the CSP with respect to the sex of the embryos examined, it was found that there was no clear relationship between the sex of the fetus and the geometrical shape of the cavum septum. Also, there was no significant relationship between sex of fetus and CSP Ratio. Conclusion: The advancement of gestational age was related to CPS characteristics. This could be used in identifying subjects with increased risk for central nervous system abnormalities. |
