Your seventeen week old fetus appears to have his stomach on the right hand side of body but all other organs are in correct place what complications will this occur for him?

The stomach of a fetus is normally located in the upper left quadrant of the abdomen. If a fetus has its stomach on the right hand side of the body, this is called situs inversus. Situs inversus is a rare condition that occurs in about 1 in 10,000 people.

Situs inversus can be caused by a number of factors, including genetic mutations and environmental factors. In most cases, situs inversus is not associated with any health problems. However, in some cases, it can be associated with other medical conditions, such as heart defects, lung defects, and digestive problems.

The complications that can occur for a fetus with situs inversus depend on the specific medical conditions that are associated with it. In some cases, situs inversus can be fatal. However, in most cases, it is not a life-threatening condition.

If you are pregnant and have been told that your fetus has situs inversus, it is important to talk to your doctor about the potential risks and complications. Your doctor can also recommend any necessary tests or treatments.
