An accurate diagnosis of fetal genitourinary abnormality is essential because some genitourinary abnormalities are associated with pulmonary hypoplasia, which ultimately affects the neonatal outcome. Adrenal masses are rare; however, presence of any lesion located at the superior pole of the kidney should raise the possibility of an adrenal mass. Fetal genital anomalies are rare as well and some of the most difficult to diagnose. A combination and pattern of findings allows for specific diagnosis of renal tract abnormalities. This article reviews the imaging appearance of fetal genitourinary abnormalities with perinatal imaging correlation where available.
准确诊断胎儿泌尿生殖系统异常至关重要，因为一些泌尿生殖系统异常与肺发育不全有关，而这最终会影响新生儿的预后。肾上腺肿块很少见；然而，位于肾上极的任何病变都应增加肾上腺肿块的可能性。胎儿生殖器异常也很少见，并且是最难诊断的一些异常。多种检查结果及其模式有助于对尿路异常进行特异性诊断。本文回顾了胎儿泌尿生殖系统异常的影像学表现，并在可行的情况下与围产期影像学进行了关联。
