Prenatal diagnosis of pentalogy of cantrell in a case with craniorachischisis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The pentalogy of Cantrell was first described by Cantrell et al in 1958, who reported 5 cases with this anomaly [1]. The findings included a lower sternum defect, a midline supraumblical thoracoabdominal wall defect, a defect of the anterior diaphragm, a defect of the diaphragmatic pericardium and congenital cardiac anomalies [1,2]. The pentalogy is associated with very poor prognosis and therefore the need for prenatal diagnosis arises [3,4]. The overall prognosis and survival depends on extent of the ventral wall, sternal and cardiac defects. But when there is association of anomalies of central nervous system, the prognosis may become even poorer. Association of craniorachischisis to the pentalogy of Cantrell is extremely rare and has been reported in very few cases. In this report we describe a case of Pentalogy of Cantrell with craniorachischisis.
