Fetal gallstones or echogenic sludge in the fetal gallbladder have rarely been reported prenatally despite the increasing number of ultrasound scans performed during pregnancy. In this report we present a case in which diffuse echogenic material was detected in the fetal gallbladder in a surviving monochorionic twin. This report identifies another predisposing factor for fetal gallstones/sludge in the perinatal period.
