What is hypoplasia?
hypoplasia is incomplete formation of a structure or organ in the body. This may be due to genetic conditions or errors during fetal development and, depending on the structures involved, complications may be variable. Treatments are available for some forms of hypoplasia and in other cases treatment is aimed at controlling related problems and maintaining the highest level of patient's comfort. In the hypoplasia, either the development of the structure is stopped or does not form properly. This can be diagnosed during fetal development, because sometimes malformations are visible in imaging studies or shortly after birth. People with adolescent development disorders can experience the beginning of hypoplasia later, such as when girls cannot develop breasts in puberty. In other cases, patients may need specialized medical care to solve problems such as malformed kidneys or lungs. In cases where the organs are doubled, the patient mayPen survive on a healthy organ only later in life. Hypoplasia can also be associated with serious congenital defects, such as significant developments in people missing parts of the brain.
Medical imaging studies and physical tests can be used to assess a patient with hypoplasia to learn more about the nature of the disorder and see if any complications have developed. This information will be used to formulate the treatment plan suitable for the patient's needs. Treatment may include remedial surgery shortly after birth, administering drugs to compensate for problems such as abnormal hormone distribution in the body, or Wait, and see approach to determining whether the patient even needs medical intervention.
People with a history of hypoplasia who think that they have children can discuss the situation with their doctors. They have genetic conditions, there is a risk that children are passing on children. If abnormal development was the result of randomMistakes during fetal development, it should be safe to have children, although it is always possible to be a carrier of an unrelated harmful gene without being aware of it. Genetic testing can be used to look at common chromosomal sites of genetic disorders to see if a person is exposed to the risk of children with genetic conditions.
