What Does Superior Aspect Of The Uterus On An Ultrasound Report Mean?

Hi, my name is pooja and in my 18week+1 day scan, an amniotic band has been noted in superior aspect of the uterus. All the fetal measurements as per the ultrasound were normal and the band was not attached to the baby. At present, I m 20weeks + 2 days. Do the baby still has danger from amniotic band at this stage? What does superior aspect mean and does it tell the band position in uterus? Which body part is it near to? Can I get it removed?

Hi,

Superior part of uterus refers to the upper part of uterus. Presence of amniotic band usually does not cause any problem but regular growth monitoring of the fetus is needed.

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