ObjectiveTo examine third‐trimester sonographic imaging of the fetal pancreas in uncomplicated pregnancies and its association with pregnancy outcomes.MethodsThis was a prospective cohort study including 274 pregnant women. Uncomplicated pregnancies in the third trimester (28–40 weeks) were included in the study. Maternal chronic disease, pregnancy‐related disorders such as hypertension, diabetes, cholestasis, smoking, and fetal abnormalities were determined as exclusion criteria. Sonographic fetal pancreatic measurement and echogenicity were evaluated in all participants. For intra‐observer reliability, each participant's fetal pancreatic circumference was measured two times. The echogenicity of the pancreas was compared with the liver and ribs and classified as grade 1, 2, and 3. The pregnancy outcomes of all participants were obtained from the hospital digital registration system.ResultsThe average fetal pancreatic circumference in the third trimester was 70.7 ± 0.6 mm (median, 70 [44–100.7]), with high intra‐observer agreement (ICC 0.996 [0.995; 0.997]). A significant positive correlation was found between pancreatic circumference, body mass index (BMI), gestational age, and birth weight. Pancreatic measurements were significantly higher in composite adverse outcomes cases that included at least one of respiratory distress syndrome, hyperbilirubinemia, neonatal pneumonia, infection, and sepsis (p < 0.001). No relationship was found between pancreatic echogenicity and perinatal outcomes.ConclusionFetal pancreas size was positively correlated with gestational age, BMI, and birth weight, and increased fetal pancreas size was associated with composite adverse neonatal outcomes.
