Ultrasonographic features of a fetus at 18 weeks of gestation suggesting a body stalk anomaly are presented. These included a large abdominal anterior wall defect in apparent continuity with the placenta, severe kyphoscoliosis of the lower spine, the absence of one kidney, and a very short umbilical cord with only one umbilical artery. The amniotic fluid was reduced and the fetus was almost immobile at short-interval ultrasound examinations. The pregnancy was terminated and autopsy of the fetus showed abnormalities compatible with maldevelopment of both cephalic and caudal embryonic folds.
本文呈现了妊娠18周胎儿的超声特征,提示存在躯体蒂异常。这些特征包括与胎盘明显连续的巨大腹部前壁缺损、下脊柱严重脊柱侧弯、一侧肾脏缺如以及仅有一条脐动脉的极短脐带。羊水减少,在短间隔超声检查中胎儿几乎不动。妊娠终止,胎儿尸检显示的异常与头侧和尾侧胚胎褶发育不良相符。
