Association of omphalocele and craniorachischisis totalis: The role of three-dimensional ultrasonography with diagnostic features

15579

Omphalocele is an anterior abdominal wall defect with the herniation of the visceral contents covered by a thin membrane. It is one of the most common malformations of the anterior abdominal wall, with high morbidity and mortality. The incidence of omphalocele is nearly 1 in 5,000 live births. Cranirachischisis totalis is anencephaly with a contiguous spinal defect. The defect occurs with the failure of neural tube to close within 28 days after conception and leads to fetal loss, still birth, or neonatal death. Prenatal diagnostic tool for both anomalies is ultrasound. In most cases two-dimensional conventional ultrasound provides sufficient images for the accurate diagnosis. In this report, we present the association of omphalocele and craniorachischisis with the three-dimensional ultrasonographic and post-abortal findings.
