    Objectives   After completing this article, readers should be able to:1. Understand the various causes of polyhydramnios.

    2. Describe the pathways of amniotic fluid production and removal.

    3. Appreciate the reason for preterm delivery following the diagnosis of polyhydramnios.

    4. Recognize the treatment methods for polyhydramnios.

    5. Explain the importance of sudden changes in fundal size during pregnancy.

    IntroductionPolyhydramnios, sometimes referred to as hydramnios, is a relatively uncommon compli-

    cation affecting pregnancy that refers to the presence of an excessive amount of amniotic

    fluid relative to gestational age. Onset may be gradual or sudden, based on the cause.

    Gradual onset may be largely asymptomatic. In this situation, the diagnosis is suspected

     when fundal height exceeds that expected for gestational age. In contrast, sudden onset of 

    polyhydramnios often is symptomatic, characterized by contractions and significant ab-

    dominal discomfort. Polyhydramnios has potential serious consequences, primarily related

    to the cause, but also due to the increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcome, such as

    preterm labor (PTL) or preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PPROM).

    Incidence and FrequencyThe exact incidence of polyhydramnios is unknown because mild, asymptomatic cases may 

    be discovered only at the time of delivery and are underreported. Several series have

    suggested that the incidence may range up to 1.6% in a low-risk population. Most cases are

    mild and often not associated with any significant sequelae. Approximately 35% of cases

    could be classified as moderate or severe, requiring further diagnostic or therapeutic

    measures.

    Prior to the routine use of diagnostic ultrasonography, the incidence of polyhydramnios

    seemed much lower. Today, though, ultrasonography studies may reveal an abnormal

    increase in amniotic fluid volume earlier in pregnancy, resulting in more cases being

    reported. Intuitively, it seems that earlier diagnosis via ultrasonography could improve

    outcome, but that has not yet been proven conclusively.

    DiagnosisThe clinical suspicion of abnormally large fundal size remains critical to the diagnosis of 

    polyhydramnios. Serial measurements of uterine height at the time of prenatal visits can

    stimulate the clinician to consider possible causes of abnormal fundal size. Subsequently,obstetric ultrasonography can confirm the presence of abnormally increased amniotic fluid

     volume and allow a thorough study of the fetus for possible anatomic causes.

    Over the past 25 years, a number of investigators have created models to standardize the

    measurement of amniotic fluid volume. In some instances, they have compared and

    contrasted formulas for measuring amniotic fluid volume with precise, objective invasive

    methods, such as dye dilution studies. Others have compared subjective assessment of 

    amniotic fluid volume with various formula models. Subjective measurements, however,

    do not allow comparisons of values between different observers.

     An experienced sonographer can assess the amniotic fluid volume subjectively and have

    a high index of suspicion that the amount is increased. In

    addition, a sonographer can use one of the objective

    methods to diagnose polyhydramnios. However, when

    intraobserver results are compared, there is a poor corre-

    lation unless the fluid volume is very abnormal.

    The amniotic fluid index (AFI) has been the most

    studied objective measure of amniotic fluid volume. The

    sonographer divides the uterus into four quadrants and

    measures the greatest vertical depth of fluid without fetal

    parts present in each quadrant. The sum of these mea-

    surements is the AFI. This method is not used prior to

    20 weeks’ gestation. The upper limit of normal for the

     AFI is 20 cm, with values of 20 to 24 cm considered

    borderline.

    Normal AFI values generally are well supported inmost studies. However, diagnosing polyhydramnios by 

     AFI compared with dye studies showed a sensitivity of 

    only 30% and a positive predictive value of 57%. As

    expected, specificity was good at 98%. Other methods of 

    objectively measuring amniotic fluid volume, such as

    measuring the greatest two diameters of the largest

    pocket of amniotic fluid noted (50 cm being the crite-

    rion for polyhydramnios) or measuring the single deep-

    est pocket of fluid noted (8 cm indicating polyhydram-

    nios) also have poor sensitivity, at 38% and 29%,

    respectively.

    Despite the poor correlation of objective measure-ments of fluid volume with precise dye-dilution studies, a

    subjective suspicion of polyhydramnios should be fol-

    lowed by ultrasonography using one of the objective

    measures of amniotic fluid noted. Serial studies subse-

    quently can be employed to evaluate for changes in fluid

     volume.

    CausesThe production of amniotic fluid and the maintenance of 

    normal amniotic fluid volume are critical to the develop-

    ment of a normal fetus. (See the article by Gilbert in this

    issue of  NeoReviews .) Production of amniotic fluid variesby gestational age. Early in the pregnancy, fluid primarily 

    results from transmembranous secretion via the amnion

    and the body surface of the embryo. By the early second

    trimester, the fetus begins to produce urine, and fluid

    also is secreted from the fetal lungs, egressing into the

    amniotic cavity. By 20 to 22 weeks’ gestation, the fetal

    skin surfaces keratinize and no longer are a source of 

    amniotic fluid. Thus, most of the fluid in the latter half of 

    gestation comes from the fetal kidneys and, to a lesser

    extent, fetal lungs.

    Fetal urine production is estimated at 2 to 5 mL/h

    around 22 to 24 weeks’ gestation and almost50 mL/h at

    term. These estimates are based on ultrasonography-

    derived measures of fetal bladder volume changes in

    pregnancy. Lung fluid production has been estimated to

    be 150 to 170 mL/d, with most of the fluid excreted into

    the amniotic fluid compartment. Lung fluid production

    appears to be critical to maintaining growth and devel-

    opment of the alveoli. In addition, some studies suggest

    that the excess amount of fluid produced creates a pres-

    sure differential in the terminal bronchioles that further

    expands the developing alveolar buds.

    Fluid leaves the amniotic cavity in the second half of 

    pregnancy largely via two routes. First, fetal swallowing

    normally accounts for the vast amount of fluid leaving

    the amniotic compartment. It is estimated that the late-

    term fetus swallows about 500 to 1,000 mL/d. The fetalgastrointestinal tract absorbs fluid and solutes and re-

    turns them to the maternal compartment via the pla-

    centa. Less well understood is the egress of fluid via the

    intramembranous process. It is well documented in fetal

    lambs and other animal models that a moderate amount

    of fluid can be absorbed via the placental surface. Inter-

    estingly, in fetal sheep models, occlusion of fetal swallow-

    ing results in a marked increase of intramembranous fluid

    flow. One estimate of normal flow via the transmembra-

    nous route is approximately 300 to 400 mL/d.

    Regulation of normal amniotic fluid volume, that is,

    the balance of fluid production and removal, is poorly understood. Animal models that artificially increase fluid

    production or restrict fluid removal by one mechanism

    show that alternate mechanisms can readily adapt and

    adjust their role in homeostasis of fluid volume. How-

    ever, the “sensors” that control such mechanisms are

    unknown. Possibly, fluid volume, osmolality, and elec-

    trolyte concentrations all contribute to amniotic fluid

    homeostasis in the healthy fetus.

    From a clinical perspective, polyhydramnios results

    from an overproduction of amniotic fluid or an interrup-

    tion in the removal of fluid from the amniotic cavity.

    Causes can be subdivided further into maternal or fetalorigin (Table 1). The primary maternal cause of polyhy-

    dramnios is diabetes mellitus, which may contribute up

    to 25% of the cases recognized. However, such cases of 

    polyhydramnios usually are in the mild-to-moderate

    range and seldom are associated with significant morbid-

    ity. The precise cause in maternal diabetes seems to be

    the increase in fetal urine production, probably related to

    increased osmotic gradients in fetal blood flow from the

    placenta due to hyperglycemia.

    Fetal causes of polyhydramnios can be divided primar-

    ily into two general categories: neurologic inhibition of 

    the fetal swallowing mechanism and mechanical obstruc-

    tion or interruption of swallowing and gastrointestinal

    absorption (Table 2). Neurologic inhibition of the swal-

    lowing mechanism, and perhaps inhibition of the regu-

    latory mechanism of amniotic fluid homeostasis, can

    result from congenital disorders such as some aneu-

    ploidies or neuromuscular disorders or acquired condi-tions such as in utero viral infections that have central

    nervous system manifestations. More common causes are

    mechanical obstruction of swallowing, such as atresia of 

    the esophagus or bowel or obstruction of the gastroin-

    testinal tract by intra-abdominal masses. Less common

    causes of polyhydramnios are severe fetal anemia with

    associated hydrops, usually due to isoimmunization or

    fetal-maternal hemorrhage. In these latter diagnoses, the

    increased amniotic fluid volume may result from high-

    output cardiac perfusion of the kidneys, with resultant

    increased urine production, or from cardiac failure and

    reduced swallowing mechanisms.Based on some series, 40% to 60% of cases of polyhy-

    dramnios do not have an apparent cause during preg-

    nancy. So-called “idiopathic” polyhydramnios can occur

     with a healthy fetus, although careful neonatal evaluation

    still is indicated.

    Evaluation and TreatmentEvaluation of the fetus by thorough, targeted anatomic

    ultrasonography is the cornerstone of determining a

    diagnosis and cause when polyhydramnios is suspected.

    The probability of diagnosing a fetal structural defect as

    the cause of the increased amniotic fluid volume im-

    proves as the volume of fluid increases. With severe

    polyhydramnios, more than 30% of fetal studies result in

    identification of a structural defect. Experienced perina-

    tal consultation should be obtained to aid in overall

    management.

     Amniocentesis for fetal karyotype is strongly recom-

    mended, especially in the presence of a structural defect.

    In addition, maternal screening for evidence of fetal-

    maternal bleeding, congenital infection, and possibly 

    hereditary anemias may be considered. Routine prenatal

    laboratory results should be reviewed, especially glucose

    screening, isoimmunization, and maternal serum

    screens. If no cause can be determined prior to delivery,

    the pediatric staff must evaluate the newborn carefully,

    paying close attention to neuromuscular developmentand function as well as ruling out structural defects not

    always seen during obstetric ultrasonography (certain

    cardiac defects, midline cleft malformations, and tra-

    cheoesophageal fistulas).

    For most cases of polyhydramnios, no intervention or

    aggressive therapy is indicated. However, based on the

    degree of excess amniotic fluid, the pregnancy may be at

    risk for PPROM, PTL, or maternal respiratory restric-

    tion. Also, there is an increased risk of fetal death, prob-

    ably related to the underlying cause of the fluid disorder.

    The pregnancy in which amniotic fluid volume is

    increased should be followed carefully, with screening forsigns and symptoms of PTL, maternal compromise, or

    fetal jeopardy. Reduction in maternal activity and in-

    creased bedrest may be prudent, although neither has

    been shown conclusively to change outcome. In some

    instances, polyhydramnios resolves spontaneously.

    Maternal symptoms are the most common reason for

    therapeutic intervention. If the patient becomes symp-

    tomatic, either with uterine irritability, respiratory com-

    promise, or discomfort, treatment may be necessary to

    prolong the pregnancy. Based on gestational age, two

    options are available: amnioreduction or the use of pros-

    taglandin inhibitors to attempt a medical reduction of 

    fluid production.

     Amnioreduction should be performed by personnel

    familiar with the procedure. Using ultrasonography 

    guidance, a large-bore needle is placed in the amnioticcavity, and fluid is removed via a suction pump. The goal

    is to remove fluid slowly, reducing fluid volume to a

    near-normal AFI of less than 25 cm. Some patients

    require mild sedation, analgesics, or tocolytics for the

    procedure, although most tolerate the amnioreduction

     without incident. The amniotic fluid volume should be

    evaluated frequently (at least twice weekly) and the pro-

    cedure repeated when symptoms recur or volumes begin

    to increase significantly. Some patients may require serial

    procedures to prolong pregnancy. Careful informed con-

    sent must be obtained because the procedure may pre-

    cipitate PTL or PPROM. Also, the risk/benefit balance versus gestational age must be considered carefully.

    Some data suggest that prostaglandin inhibitors, such

    as indomethacin or ibuprofen, may reduce fetal urine

    production. Although no controlled, randomized stud-

    ies have compared methods of therapy, medical therapy 

    may be considered, especially when polyhydramnios de-

     velops at early gestational ages. Due to the concern over

    fetal ductus arteriosus closure with prostaglandin treat-

    ment, therapy should be conducted only in perinatal

    centers that have the ability to follow fetal ductal blood

    flow. In addition, it would seem prudent not to use such

    therapy beyond 32 weeks gestational age.Treatment of significant polyhydramnios prior to

    term may include corticosteroid therapy to enhance fetal

    lung maturity. Antepartum surveillance with ultrasonog-

    raphy and cardiotocography should be employed prior to

    delivery. The goal of all therapy is to assure fetal and

    maternal well-being and allow the fetus to reach matu-

    rity. In some cases, however, delivery prior to fetal ma-

    turity may result or be indicated. The method of delivery 

    depends on fetal well-being and standard obstetric indi-

    cations. Increased amniotic fluid volume does increase

    the chance of fetal malposition or funic (cord) presenta-

    tion. Sudden uterine decompression with PPROM or

    amniotomy can result in placental abruption. The fetus

    should be monitored continuously at all times during

    labor and delivery.
