Así, por ejemplo, cuando se realiza una exploración obstétrica por ultrasonido y se observan alteraciones del líquido amniótico (polihidramnios u oligohidramnios) o del crecimiento fetal, o cuando se han confirmado anomalías cromosómicas, hay que considerar seriamente la posibilidad de estar ante un caso de malformación fetal. 2, record 1, Spanish, - malformaci%C3%B3n%20fetal
