I had an 18 week ultrasound for my unborn son today. The doctor found a cyst on the brain and an enlarged muscle in the heart. I sent the blood work off for the DS test today. There is no genetic abnormalities in either my family or my husbands. I know the cyst will probably go away on its own god willing but if the DS test comes back negative what will the enlarged heart muscle mean for the baby?
Hi...by what you quote I feel that it could be a tuberous sclerosis. It is TS and not DS. Hopefully God willing everything will be alright. But if it is TS, then the heart muscle enlargement needs to be followed by regular echocardiogram. But it might not be life-threatening. Regards -
