Polihidramnios
Sign in to savePolyhydramnios is a medical condition describing an excess of amniotic fluid in the amniotic sac. It is seen in about 1% of pregnancies. It is typically diagnosed when the amniotic fluid index (AFI) is greater than 24 cm. There are two clinical varieties of polyhydramnios: chronic polyhydramnios where excess amniotic fluid accumulates gradually, and acute polyhydramnios where excess amniotic fluid collects rapidly.

Polihidramnios es un término médico que se refiere a la presencia excesiva o aumento de líquido amniótico—por lo general mayor a los 2 litros o un índice de líquido amniótico >18 mm—alrededor del feto antes de que este nazca. La alteración puede ocurrir cuando el feto no puede tragar la cantidad normal o suficiente de líquido amniótico o debido a diversos problemas gastrointestinales, cerebrales o del sistema nervioso (neurológicos) o de otro tipo de causas relacionadas con el aumento en la producción de líquido como cierto trastorno pulmonar del feto.
