A member asked:
Hello dr, i'm 20 weeks pregnant lady, just now i had done scanning and mentioned on report like "umbilical cord 2 vessel cord" what is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Single artery: Usually in the umbilical cord there are two arteries and one vein. Every now and then a baby is born with one artery and one vein. In the majority of cases this is not a problem. That single artery can support the pregnancy. Occasionally the single artery can indicate the presence of a congenital abnormality of heart, kidney, intestines. But this can be identified by the ultrasound. Don't fret
