Sonographic findings in a fetus with megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome.
[megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome]
We
describe
the
perinatal
findings
in
a
female
fetus
with
megacystis-
microcolon
-
intestinal
hypoperistalsis
syndrome
(
MMIHS
)
.
Prenatal
sonography
performed
during
18
-
21
weeks
'
gestation
showed
a
normal
amount
of
amniotic
fluid
,
but
the
fetus
was
seen
to
have
a
persistently
distended
stomach
,
a
hugely
distended
bladder
,
and
bilateral
dilated
renal
calyces
.
Genetic
analysis
of
amniotic
fluid
revealed
a
46
,
XX
karyotype
.
The
pregnancy
was
terminated
at
22
weeks
'
gestation
.
At
necropsy
,
the
fetus
was
found
to
have
prune-belly
syndrome
,
gastric
dilatation
,
pronounced
megacystis
,
bilateral
hydronephrosis
and
megaureters
,
short
bowel
,
microileum
,
microcolon
,
and
malrotation
of
the
intestines
.
This
fetus
showed
the
typical
clinical
and
sonographic
features
of
MMIHS
,
as
well
as
the
rare
antenatal
finding
of
persistent
gastric
distention
.
