Core Tip	We studied total bile acid (TBA) concentration in maternal, fetal and amniotic fluid and its relationship with fetal surfactant, surfactant protein A, amniotic lamellar body and fetal lung development. Results demonstrated that intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) has higher TBA in maternal and fetal blood and amniotic fluid. The high concentration of TBA may affect fetal pulmonary surfactant production and fetal lung maturation. It calls attention to delayed maturation of fetal lungs in ICP patients and to take steps to carefully check and improve fetal pulmonary maturity.
