Magnetic resonance imaging for prenatal diagnosis of multisystem disease: megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome.
[megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome]
We
discuss
a
third
-trimester
diagnosis
of
Megacystis-
microcolon
-
intestinal
hypoperistalsis
syndrome
(
MMIHS
)
using
magnetic
resonance
imaging
(
MRI
)
and
consider
the
benefits
of
MRI
as
a
noninvasive
imaging
technique
after
routine
ultrasonography
reveals
genitourinary
pathology
requiring
further
elucidation
.
MMIHS
is
a
rare
cause
of
functional
gastrointestinal
and
genitourinary
obstruction
in
newborns
.
Because
of
the
poor
prognosis
of
MMIHS
,
prenatal
diagnosis
is
warranted
for
optimal
prenatal
counseling
and
postnatal
treatment
.
Although
MMIHS
commonly
presents
on
ultrasonography
,
the
limitations
of
ultrasonography
make
definitive
diagnosis
difficult
.
However
,
MRI
is
safe
,
accurate
,
and
can
be
used
for
early
prenatal
diagnoses
of
multisystem
diseases
.
