Topography of thymus humans in early fetal period of its development

Сongenital malformations of the thymus, the interpretation of which is difficult when ultrasound study of the chest cavity in the early stages of prenatal ontogenesis often put the question of choosing one of the planes 3 standard directions. Compliance plane images structures, ultrasound and sectional slices is key for conducting work in this direction. The study was 60 human fetuses obtained at artificial abortion for social reasons in age from 16 to 18 weeks ’ gestation. New data have been obtained outside of organ topography of the thymus man in the early fetal period of ontogenesis, depending on the level and the slice of the torso of the fetus. Research data complement the information on the morphology of the thymus fetus and are basic in conducting ultrasound examination.
