The Pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by defects in the closing of the supraumbilical abdominal wall, in the anterior portion of the diaphragm, in the diaphragmatic pericardium, ectopia cordis, and intracardiac defects. It may be associated to other anomalies determining the variants of this syndrome. The prenatal ultrasound diagnosis is extremely important for detecting structural malformations and for postnatal surgical planning, when possible. We present a case of Pentalogy of Cantrell diagnosed in the 34th week of gestation, showing the main findings by two-dimensional ultrasound and emphasizing the importance of three-dimensional ultrasound on the assessment of structural malformations and on the better understanding of the origins of the pathology.
坎特雷尔五联症是一种罕见的先天性异常，其特征为脐上腹壁闭合缺陷、膈肌前部缺陷、膈心包缺陷、心脏异位和心内缺陷。它可能与其他异常相关，从而决定了该综合征的变体。产前超声诊断对于检测结构畸形以及在可能的情况下进行产后手术规划极为重要。我们报告一例在妊娠第34周诊断出的坎特雷尔五联症病例，展示二维超声的主要发现，并强调三维超声在评估结构畸形以及更好地理解病理起源方面的重要性。
