Presentation
Routine obstetrics screening in a thirty-year-old female.
Patient Data
The fetus demonstrated normal morphology, biophysical scoring, and Doppler velocimetry with a composite gestational maturity at 30 weeks and 2 days. At the fetal external pelvis, the genitalia; scrotum, and penile shaft (phallus) are seen and are unmistakable for the male gender. A urinal jet freely flows (fetal micturition) from the fetal penile urethra admixing with the amnion.
Case Discussion
A real-time sample of a fetus urinating (micturating) in utero at 30 weeks gestation which is a normal physiological occurrence that helps add the amount of liquor during pregnancy.
