Background: The clinical phenotypes of 16p13.11 microduplication syndrome have been extensively reported in previous studies, mostly about adults and children, with limited information available on fetal cases. This study aims to explore the genotype-phenotype correlation of fetuses with 16p13.

Background: Congenital duodenal obstruction (CDO) is commonly detected antenatally through the presence of the "double bubble" sign on prenatal ultrasound, denoting dilatation of the stomach and duodenum. Subsequent postnatal ultrasonography plays a pivotal role in determining the causes of obstruction, thereby informing surgical strategies and neonatal management. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of postnatal ultrasonography in comparison to that of prenatal ultrasound and surgical findings in a cohort of 43 patients with fetal double bubble sign.

Background: Pregnancy luoteomas are tumor-like ovarian lesions that emerge during pregnancy and spontaneously regress after delivery. Antenatal diagnosis is infrequently reported, and unnecessary surgery appears to be common in literature reports.
Case Summary: A 28-year-old primigravida with bilateral adnexal masses was discovered at 32 + 5 weeks during prenatal ultrasound evaluation.

Background: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is associated with a suboptimal intrauterine environment, which may adversely impact fetal neurodevelopment. However, analysing neurodevelopmental outcomes by observed birthweight fails to differentiate between true FGR and constitutionally small infants and cannot account for iatrogenic intervention. This study aimed to determine the relationship between antenatal FGR and mid-childhood (age 5 to 7 years) educational outcomes.
