A member asked:
What does it mean if venous lakes are seen on ultrasound in placenta at 20 weeks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually: doesn't mean anything unless very diffuse. It is a relatively common 2nd trimester incidental finding, generally not associated with adverse outcomes. Talk to your doc about the results.
