[megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome]
Prenatal
diagnosis
of
fetal
megacystis
particularly
in
the
first
trimester
requires
assessement
of
pronostic
and
aetiologycal
criteria
.
Report
a
new
case
.
we
report
a
case
of
severe
megacystis
in
female
fetus
diagnosed
at
23
weeks
of
gestation
.
There
are
no
other
associated
ultrasound
findings
.
Fetal
karyotyping
was
normal
(

)
.
Termination
of
pregnancy
for
medical
indications
was
realised
because
of
progressive
enlargement
of
the
fetal

.
Post-mortem
examination
shown
megacystis-
microcolon
-
intestinal
hypoperistalsis
syndrome
.
Fetal
megacystis
is
a
severe
condition
when
diagnosed
early
in
pregnancy
.
Ultrasonography
follow-up
and
fetal

are
important
to
evaluate
