Cerebral malformations are of fundamental importance in the clinical diagnosis of Aicardi Syndrome (AS). Some of these anomalies like callosal agenesis, cysts formation, posterior fossa anomalies and gross interhemispheric asymmetry are easily observed in the prenatal period with the use of foetal Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI). We present two cases of female newborns with cerebral MRI performed in the prenatal period and further diagnosed with AS. With the increase use of foetal MRI, AS will be easier suspected in the prenatal period in a female fetus with typical brain anomalies.
脑畸形在Aicardi综合征(AS)的临床诊断中至关重要。其中一些异常,如胼胝体发育不全、囊肿形成、后颅窝异常和明显的半球间不对称,在孕期使用胎儿磁共振成像(MRI)时很容易观察到。我们报告两例在孕期进行脑MRI检查并进一步诊断为AS的女性新生儿病例。随着胎儿MRI使用的增加,在孕期,对于具有典型脑异常的女性胎儿,AS将更容易被怀疑。
