    Author: Beegun I, Dua R, Connor S, Bentley R.
    Journal: Int J Oral Maxillofac Surg; 2012 Feb; 41(2):200-2. PubMed ID: 22137638.
    Abstract:
    Foetal imaging and anomaly detection is advancing at a rapid rate. As a result, detection of foetal craniofacial abnormalities is increasing. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging are currently the imaging modalities most commonly used. The authors describe the detection of a nasal glioma at 20 weeks' gestation, subsequent prenatal monitoring and postnatal management with surgical excision at 2 months of age. The world literature regarding prenatal diagnosis and management of craniofacial malformations is discussed.
