Riassunto
Il termine ventricolomegalia (VM) indica l’ampliamento dei ventricoli laterali con misure superiori ai 10 mm nei feti dalla 14° settimana di gestazione fino a termine. Una ventricolomegalia può essere il risultato di diversi tipi di anomalie cerebrali o insulti verificatisi durante lo sviluppo. La misurazione dei ventricoli in ecografia corrisponde all’ampiezza a livello dell’atrio del ventricolo laterale distale alla sonda.
