Popis: | OBJECTIVES Incompatibility between currently available fetoscopes and the anatomical constraints of the distended fetal bladder, with the resulting curvature around the bladder neck, account for most technical difficulties during fetal cystoscopy in lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO). The aim of this anatomical study was to assess by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) the variation in three bladder angles (bladder-neck angle (BNA), vesicourethral angle (VUA) and angle between bladder dome and posterior urethra (DUA)), according to gestational age (GA), bladder volume and the presence of LUTO. METHODS From our fetal medicine database, we retrieved for review 46 MRI examinations of male fetuses between 2015 and 2019, including 17 with LUTO, examined at a mean GA of 28.1 (range, 17.3-35.0) weeks and 29 age-matched controls, examined at 29.9 (range, 21.9-35.0) weeks. We measured bladder volume, bladder-wall thickness and the three bladder angles, and used the Mann-Whitney U-test to compare values between groups. Variations according to GA and bladder volume were determined using analysis of variance (ANOVA). A reliability study was performed using the Bland-Altman method and Lin's correlation coefficient was calculated. RESULTS Both bladder volume and bladder-wall thickness were significantly greater in the LUTO group (P |
