Abstract

In the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, hyperechogenic regions in the fetal abdomen can be used to identify meconium peritonitis (MP). According to studies on neonates, MP affects 1 in every 35,000 live births. The presence of an intrauterine ileal rupture causes a sterile chemical reaction that causes meconium peritonitis. The creation of fluid results in ascites, fibrosis, calcification, and cyst formation as a secondary inflammatory reaction. This process has four different outcomes, culminating in four types of meconium peritonitis: fibre adhesive, cystic, diffuse (diffuse), and healing. Below, we describe one case of fetal meconium peritonitis.
