What is the width of the posterior horn of the lateral ventricle?

The width of posterior horn of lateral ventricle is an important index to predict the development of fetal nerve function, mainly refers to the width of posterior horn of lateral ventricle. If the width of posterior horn of lateral ventricle exceeds one centimeter, it may be caused by abnormal fetal growth, mainly considering virus microorganism infection or chromosome abnormality. If the examination indicates that the widening of the posterior horn of lateral ventricle is not necessarily an absolute problem, it may be related to fetal growth and development restriction. With the change of nutritional status or ischemia and hypoxia, there may be changes in the later stage. It is suggested that ultrasound should be reviewed regularly to observe whether there is any change in the width. If necessary, it is recommended to ensure the nutritional level, oxygen can be given under the guidance of a doctor to improve intrauterine ischemia and hypoxia. If adults find that the lateral ventricle widens, it is considered to be related to growth and development.
