Prenatal hydrocephalus describes hydrocephalus that is diagnosed in utero (before birth). It can be detected in a fetus as early as the latter part of the first trimester of pregnancy. Around 20 to 24 weeks of gestation, abnormal dilation of the fetus's ventricles is more clearly detectable. Prenatal ultrasound, performed by a radiologist or perinatologist skilled in obstetric ultrasound, is highly reliable and accurate. It will establish that there is an abnormal obstruction.  4, record 1, English, - prenatal%20hydrocephalus
