A pair of conjoined twins (thoracopagus) was detected in the 19th week of pregnancy, by ultrasound. Serumalphafetoprotein was normal. Since the fetuses had only one heart, the pregnancy was terminated. The embryopathological investigation confirmed the prenatal diagnosis. Authors recommend the ultrasound screening of all pregnant women between the 16-20th week of gestation. This case is a good example of progressive care in the field of prenatal genetics.
在妊娠第19周时,通过超声检查发现了一对联体双胎(胸部联体)。血清甲胎蛋白正常。由于胎儿只有一个心脏,于是终止了妊娠。胚胎病理学检查证实了产前诊断。作者建议对所有妊娠16至20周的孕妇进行超声筛查。该病例是产前遗传学领域逐步护理的一个很好的例子。
