Suggest Treatment For Cystic Fibrosis

My daughter in law will be 20 weeks pregnant Friday. Today she had an ultra sound the doctor told her there was an indication of calcification in the babys bowels. The doctor told her that it could correct itself or there may be concern for cystic fibrosis. We do not have CF in none of the parents families. Should we be alarmed?

Hi,

You can go for a genetic study to confirm the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis.

We can go for further management after the delivery.

You can plan delivery in a tertiary care institution with pediatric surgery facilities available.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
