What to look for in a racket-shaped embryo

Racket placenta (wrong word: embryo) requires attention to fetal movement, regular checkups, and prompt medical treatment for any abnormalities. Racket placenta is a special type of placenta in clinic. Under normal circumstances, the umbilical cord will be attached to the central part of the placenta, while the umbilical cord of racket placenta is attached to the edge of the placenta, which may result in poor circulation of the umbilical cord-placenta blood flow, affecting the fetus’s intake of oxygen and nutrients, and resulting in intrauterine fetal distress and intrauterine fetal dysplasia. Therefore, patients with racquet placenta need to pay attention to fetal movement and undergo regular obstetric examination in order to develop the abnormality in time and treat it as early as possible. It is important to note that pregnant women need to be treated under the guidance of a medical professional to avoid delaying the condition, which may lead to an adverse pregnancy outcome.
