Fetus and newborn affected by abnormality of membranes, unspecified - what does this mean

Fetus and newborn affected by abnormality of membranes, unspecified is a condition in which the fetus or newborn has a malformation of the membranes that surround and protect the fetus or newborn. this can occur due to genetic abnormalities, environmental exposures, or other unknown causes. the malformation of the membranes can lead to a variety of complications, including respiratory distress, impaired growth, and even death.

What happens during the disease - fetus and newborn affected by abnormality of membranes, unspecified

The pathogenesis of this condition is likely due to a genetic mutation that affects the development of the membranes surrounding the fetus and newborn. this mutation can lead to abnormal development of the membranes, resulting in defects in the structure and/or function of these membranes. such defects can lead to a variety of complications, such as preterm birth, increased risk of infection, and breathing difficulties.
