A member asked:
What does it mean if a fetus has too much spinal fluid in the second trimester?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spinal or Amniotic?: An increase in amniotic fluid could indicate some fetal anomalies. An increase in fetal "spinal" fluid is usually associated with meningomyelocoeles(a "radar dome" on the fetus' back.).
