متن کاملPrenatal diagnosis of thrombocytopenia-absent radius syndrome
The prenatal diagnosis of thrombocytopeniaabsent radius (TAR) syndrome by ultrasound is established. The sonographic findings showed bilateral absence of the radii and club hands with normal thumbs and metacarpals. Thrombocytopenia was identified from the postabortal cord blood. Three-dimensional computerized tomography images confirmed the sonographic diagnosis. This report, to our knowledge, ...
