What Does My Ultrasound Scan Report Indicate?
Hello, i had a dating ultrasound done at 7wks which indicated I had a co-existing 7 x 2.4 x 0.5cm perisac haematoma. Could you explain this to me? My GP had to google it a she wasnt too sure what it was, and she jus advised me not to worry. regards Tarsha

Hello and welcome to HCM,
A perisac hematoma at 7 week pregnancy implies, that there is a collection of blood (hematoma) measuring 7 cm in maximum diameter just adjacent to the gestational sac.
No abnormality is mentioned in the gestational sac so the growing embryo is intact.
However, the cause of hematoma or blood collection just adjacent to the gestational sac needs to be found out.
Thus, I suggest you to consult your obstetrician once for assessment.
No intervention is required but a follow up will be sufficient.
Thanks and take care
