Title: Review. In utero sonographic diagnosis of fetal cerebral anomalies. Author: Hidalgo H, Bowie J, Rosenberg ER, Ram PC, Ford K, Lipsit E. Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 1982 Jul; 139(1):143-8.

Cystic masses in the fetal brain may be due to hydrocephalus, hydranencephaly, holoprosencephaly, or arachnoid cysts.

Anencephaly and encephaloceles can also be detected by sonography. A review of the literature and experience with 10 cases is discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
