Hello
According to USG findings,there are no signs of fetal life.
Fetal heart beat is not seen.It should be visualized by 10 weeks of gestation.
Pathological findings suggests focal inflammation in fetal membranes and there are very less fetal tissue.
Villi(through which fetus gets nutrition)are also not properly developed.
These findings may be due to intrauterine infection.
