Recent advances in echographic diagnosis and its application during the first three months of pregnancy provide a direct method for assessment in both normal and pathological pregnancies. Given their frequency, the study was focused on the congenital structural anomalies of fetal limbs. The possibility of the repetition of these malformations in the same patient is very high, ranging from 2-25%. It is therefore extremely important to use echographic monitoring during pregnancy in order to observe and measure with great precision the lengths of the limbs and individual bones in fetuses at risk at an early stage of their development.
