What does it mean when the fetal node is absent?
An absent fetal pole can mean several things, including: Blighted ovum: A blighted ovum (anembryonic pregnancy) is when a fertilized egg implants in the uterus but doesn't grow into an embryo. This causes an early miscarriage. Too early: If a pregnancy isn't far enough along, you may not be able to see the embryo yet.
