- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 16-year-old nulliparous woman who was followed during her first pregnancy. Particular focus is given to a persistent quadruple nuchal cord in the woman's fetus throughout the third semester, which showed gradual continued decelerating fetal growth. The presence of acute-onset polyhydramios, attributed to the presence of a triple nuchal cord, is noted. The link of decelerating fetal growth with persistent quadruple nuchal cord is discussed.
