Hemochromatosis associated with cholelithiasis as a cause of hydrops fetalis and stillbirth: Prenatal diagnosis.

Prenatal diagnosis of neonatal hemochromatosis (NH) is usually raised in front of fetal hepatomegaly and heterogeneous liver architecture. We describe a novel sonographic feature that may be associated with NH. Ultrasound demonstrated reticulonodular liver and distended gallbladder with multiple gallstones in a hydropic fetus. These abnormalities were confirmed to be consistent with NH after correlation with autopsy findings. This case report highlights the value of cholelithiasis in clinical suspicion of NH and the importance to consider this sonographic feature when the liver has abnormal texture.
