The introduction of fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has improved the prenatal evaluation of uterine, placental and fetal anatomy. However, its utilization has mostly been restricted to fetal central nervous system anomalies. We review how adjunct fetal MRI was performed and diagnosis of cystic type IV sacrococcygeal teratoma was made. We also discuss the clinical relevance of fetal MRI in differentiating this lesion from other selected abdominal/pelvic cystic malformations and lesions.
胎儿磁共振成像(MRI)的引入改善了对子宫、胎盘和胎儿解剖结构的产前评估。然而,其应用大多局限于胎儿中枢神经系统异常。我们回顾了辅助性胎儿MRI的实施方式以及IV型骶尾部畸胎瘤的诊断过程。我们还讨论了胎儿MRI在鉴别该病变与其他特定腹部/盆腔囊性畸形和病变方面的临床意义。
