Megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome with bilateral duplicated systems.
[megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome]
A
29
-
year
-old
multigravida
woman
presented
for
her
second
prenatal
ultrasound
evaluation
at
30
weeks
of
gestation
.
The
study
showed
a
female
fetus
,
bilateral
duplicated
systems
with
severe
hydronephrosis
in
the
upper
pole
moieties
and
a
massively
distended
bladder
.
Initial
interpretation
suggested
ectopic
/
obstructing
bilateral
ureteroceles
.
To
evaluate
these
findings
further
,
a
prenatal
magnetic
resonance
imaging
scan
was
obtained
,
documenting
the
absence
of
ureteroceles
.
The
presumptive
diagnosis
of
megacystis
microcolon
intestinal
hypoperistalsis
syndrome
was
made
.
After
birth
,
contrast
enema
confirmed
the
presence
of
microcolon
.
This
appears
to
be
the
first
reported
case
of
megacystis
microcolon
intestinal
hypoperistalsis
syndrome
with
bilateral
duplex
systems
evaluated
with
prenatal
magnetic
resonance
imaging
.
