The umbilical cord (UC) is a vital connection between fetus and placenta. It constitutes a stable connection to the fetomaternal interface, while allowing the fetal mobility that is of great importance for fetal development in general and fetal neuromotor development in particular. This combination of mechanical stability and flexibility is due to the architecture of the UC. There is however a range of umbilical cord complications that may be life threatening to the fetus and these too can be explained to a large extent by the cord's structural characteristics. This review article discusses clinically relevant aspects of UC ultrasound.
脐带是胎儿与胎盘之间的重要连接。它构成了与母胎界面的稳定连接，同时允许胎儿活动，这对胎儿的整体发育，尤其是神经运动发育至关重要。这种机械稳定性和灵活性的结合归因于脐带的结构。然而，存在一系列可能危及胎儿生命的脐带并发症，这些在很大程度上也可以通过脐带的结构特征来解释。这篇综述文章讨论了脐带超声检查的临床相关方面。
