Fetal umbilical vein thrombosis associated with fetal bartter syndrome: an unusual case report and literature review.
This case highlights a suspected instance of umbilical vein thrombosis and polyhydramnios potentially linked to fetal Bartter syndrome. Currently, the causes of umbilical vein thrombosis primarily focus on abnormalities in umbilical cord structure or mechanical injury to the cord, with few cases involving fetal genetic conditions. The purpose of this report is to enhance medical professionals' understanding of Bartter syndrome and to consider it as a possible cause of fetal umbilical vein thrombosis and polyhydramnios. Further research should explore the link between fetal Bartter syndrome, umbilical vein thrombosis, and polyhydramnios. Additionally, strengthening case collection and analysis will help accumulate experience, optimize management strategies, and improve maternal and fetal outcomes.
