    Author: Milic A, Blaser S, Robinson A, Viero S, Halliday W, Winsor E, Toi A, Thomas M, Chitayat D.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 2006 Jul; 36(7):706-10. PubMed ID: 16770674.
    Abstract:
    Trisomy 22 is a rare chromosomal abnormality infrequently detected prenatally. External ear abnormalities, in particular microtia, are often associated with trisomy 22, but prenatal detection of microtia has not been reported in association with trisomy 22. We report a fetus with trisomy 22, with fetal MRI findings of microtia, craniofacial dysmorphism, and polygyria. Fetal MRI is a useful tool for auricular assessment and might have utility in the prenatal detection of chromosomal abnormalities, especially among fetuses with structural anomalies.
