As the use of ultrasonography has become a routine procedure in the care of pregnant women, fetal congenital malformations have been frequently diagnosed prenatally. During a 4-year period abdominal wall defects (AWD) were diagnosed in 14 cases, five were gastroschises and nine were omphaloceles, seven females and seven males. Concomitant malformations were present in one case of gastroschisis and in five cases of omphalocele. Eleven AWD's were diagnosed in the second trimester and six pregnancies were interrupted. Eight children with AWD were born; two boys with omphalocele and one girl and one boy with gastroschisis are still alive. Alpha-fetoprotein was determined in amniotic fluid in 11 cases and also in maternal serum prior to the amniocentesis in eight cases. Chromosomal investigations were performed in 13 cases, 11 on amniotic fluid cells and two on lymphocytes from a blood sample made postnatally. Two abnormal karyotypes, 47,XX + 18 were found. 相似文献

Iniencephaly is a rare and lethal congenital malformation of the neural tube characterized by occipital bone defect, cervical dysraphism, fixed retroflexion of the fetal head and severe lordosis of the cervicothoracic spine. The etiology is unknown. Prenatally diagnosed cases of iniencephaly are rare because careful and early ultrasonographic evaluation is necessary. We present three cases of iniencephaly prenatally diagnosed by sonography at 20–22 weeks' gestation in which therapeutic abortion was induced. The sonographic findings were compatible with the postmortem findings. The present cases of iniencephaly were found to carry unusual associated malformations such as two lobes in the right lung and chorangiosis of the placenta. Only hypoplastic lungs have been reported by previous authors. We also studied the 677C→T mutation on the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene in the parents in one of the present cases. The mother was found to be heterozygous for the 677CT polymorphism. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess the value of ultrasonographic evaluation in predicting abnormal karyotypes in fetuses with omphalocele. Forty fetuses with antenatally diagnosed omphalocele and available karyotype results were reviewed. Ultrasound evaluation included herniation contents and size, and the detection of other anomalies. Nine of 40 consecutive fetuses had abnormal karyotypes: trisomy 18 (n = 5), trisomy 13 (n = 3), 47,XXX (n = 1). Only 1/25 with an extracorporeal liver versus 8/15 with an intracorporeal liver had abnormal chromosomes [P = 0·0006, RR = 0·14 (0·02 < RR <0·9)]. Small defects (<3 cm) were associated with abnormal karyotypes [P = 0·01, RR = 4·7 (1·4<RR <15·6)]. Finding concurrent malformations was highly associated with chromosomal anomalies [P = 0·00004, RR = 4·4 (2·3 < RR < 8·5)]. The presence of associated malformations, an intracorporeal liver, and a small herniation size are highly suggestive of an associated abnormal karyotype. 相似文献

Omphalocele is one of the most common abdominal wall defects seen in the prenatal period. Once this diagnosis is confirmed, it is important to check the fetal karyotype and thoroughly assess the fetus for other malformations. Prenatal management involves serial assessment of fetal growth and prenatal testing to ensure fetal well-being. Closure of the abdominal wall and replacement of organs into the abdominal cavity can be done directly if the omphalocele is small or in a staged manner if the omphalocele is large. Successful outcomes for these neonates can be optimized with a multidisciplinary team approach to prenatal and postnatal management. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Experience with prenatal karyotyping of 237 fetuses with sonographic evidence of malformation is reported. Abnormal karyotype was found in 40 cases (16-8 per cent): chromosomal aberrations were found in 19 of the 178 fetuses with an isolated structural anomaly (10-6 per cent) and in 21 of the 59 fetuses with multiple malformations (35-6 per cent). Detailed cytogenetic and morphological information concerning fetuses affected by omphalocele, duodenal atresia, hydrocephalus, multicystic kidney, unilateral hydronephrosis and cystic hygroma is reported. The need for a very careful ultrasound evaluation of fetal anatomy in these pregnancies is stressed, as the risk of a chromosomal anomaly depends mainly on the existence of more than one ultrasonically diagnosed structural defect. 相似文献

Obstetric ultrasonography has made the prenatal diagnosis of gastroschisis and omphalocele more common. We present illustrative cases 2nd review the ultrasonographic features. Because of the increased risk of concomitant abnormalities (including trisomies) with omphalocele, full evaluation is indicated when this diagnosis is suspected. Recent perinatal approaches to delivery have favoured caesarean section. without scientific evidence that outcome is improved. Our experience. as well as a review of the literature, suggests that the outcome for vaginally delivered infants is acceptable. A prospective study of this question is needed. 相似文献

Amyoplasia is a rare, sporadic condition characterized by different degrees of maldevelopment of the skeletal muscles, which are replaced by fibrous and fatty tissue. In this report, we present a case of generalized amyoplasia presenting at 19 weeks' gestation. The most striking finding was the absence of fetal movements, resulting in severe multiple congenital contractures, hydrops, and polyhydramnios. At autopsy, histological examination of the skeletal muscle showed small groups of poorly developed fibres within areas of fat. This report suggests that generalized amyoplasia could be a common cause of severe forms of multiple congenital contractures, but is probably underdiagnosed at post-mortem because of inadequate examination of muscles. Definitive diagnosis is important in determining the risks of recurrence in these cases. 相似文献

Our experience with the prenatal detection of the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome (LNS; hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) deficiency) in three fetuses at risk is reported. Enzyme activities were measured in cultured amniocytes in two pregnancies, and in tissues and cultures obtained from chorionic villus sampling (CVS) in a third pregnancy. In all tissues the specific activities of HGPRT and adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) were determined and APRT/HGPRT ratios were calculated. In addition to the enzyme assays, the rate of purine synthesis de novo was assessed in the two amniocyte cultures, and the rate of [14C]hypoxanthine incorporation into nucleotides and sensitivity to azaguanine were measured in one of the amniocyte cultures. We report the diagnosis of normal fetuses by study of amniocytes in two pregnancies and of LNS using CVS in one pregnancy. In all three cases the diagnosis was confirmed. 相似文献

This report describes the prenatal findings in monozygotic twins with Costello syndrome. At 16 weeks one twin had 9 mm of nuchal oedema: coarctation of the aorta was diagnosed after birth. At 225/7 weeks relative macrocephaly, mild pyelectasia and moderate polyhydramnios were noted in both twins. In the following 4 weeks the polyhydramnios increased significantly without visualisation of filling of the stomach. Between 275/7 and 302/7 weeks a total of 9 l amniotic fluid was drained and at 304/7 weeks prelabor premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) occurred followed by premature labor and delivery. The neonatal period was complicated by growth retardation, deglutition problems, hypotonia, cardiac and respiratory problems. Both twins died on Day 57 because of respiratory insufficiency.
