Familial mutations of FBN1 have been studied and identified in Marfan syndrome, but the congenital variant is often due to de novo mutations, limiting the diagnostic capabilities of genetic screening.

متن کاملA sonographic approach to prenatal classification of congenital spine anomalies
Objective: To develop a classification system for congenital spine anomalies detected by prenatal ultrasound. Methods: Data were collected from fetuses with spine abnormalities diagnosed in our institution over a five-year period between June 2005 and June 2010. The ultrasound images were analysed to determine which features were associated with different congenital spine anomalies. Findings of...
متن کاملPrenatal sonographic diagnosis of congenital sacrococcygeal teratoma and management.
Teratomas are tumors containing tissues derived from all three germinal cell layers. Most teratomas arise in the sacrococcygeal region, with a reported incidence of 1/40,000 births. During labor, severe dystocia may occur in infants with large tumors if delivered vaginally, with an extremely high fetal morbidity and mortality rate. Reported is a case of a large congenital sacrococcygeal teratom...
