  • Title: Prenatal detection of congenital hypospadias in the Wolf-Hirschhorn (4p-) syndrome.
    Author: Viñals F, Sepulveda W, Selman E.
    Journal: Prenat Diagn; 1994 Dec; 14(12):1166-9. PubMed ID: 7899285.
    Abstract:
    Hypospadias is one of the most prominent and characteristic midline defects in male infants with the Wolf-Hirschhorn (4p-) syndrome. In this report we present a case in which hypospadias was identified prenatally at 29 weeks' gestation in association with intrauterine growth retardation. Cytogenetic evaluation after birth confirmed a 46,XY,del(4)(p14) karyotype. The prenatal identification of hypospadias in fetuses with intrauterine growth retardation and normal amniotic fluid should suggest a diagnosis of Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome.
