Abstract

The entity of fetal lateral cervical cysts is presented as an isolated anomaly or associated with other sonographic structural findings, sometimes being determined by chromosomal abnormalities. We report a case of spontaneous regression of large fetal anterolateral cervical bilateral cysts diagnosed by ultrasonography at 13 weeks. Complete resolution of cervical cysts was documented at 20 weeks. The patient reveals no concerning results to other assessments related to her pregnancy including first trimester bio-chemical screening, cell free fetal DNA testing, routine laboratory tests, ultrasound repeated evaluation of fetal growth and wellbeing. When fetal anterolateral cervical cysts are encountered as isolated finding, completely separated by nuchal translucency fluid collection, regardless of the cystic diameter and bilaterally, the rules are normal karyotype, high rate of total regression and preservation the good pregnancy outcome.
