Clinical challenges in the management of a prenatally diagnosed cloacal malformation.

Cloacal dysgenesis sequence is a severe malformation of the primitive cloaca and is characterized by a phallus-like structure, smooth perineum and the absence of genitourinary and anal orifices. It is usually accompanied by oligohydramnios, kidney dysplasia, and pulmonary hypoplasia. We present a case of a 29-year-old woman who was referred at 26 weeks of gestation due to an enlarged fetal abdominal circumference.

Massive fetal intracranial teratoma with hydrocephalus detected at 33 weeks of gestation.

Fetal intracranial teratomas are rare neoplasms that can be readily detected via USG and MRI. While early discovery of such a condition may be helpful, the prognosis remains poor. We present a case of a massive intracranial teratoma and hydrocephalus initially detected via USG at 33 weeks of gestation.
