Abstract
Here, we present a 30-week-old female fetus with congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Target fetal ultrasound rated the degree of virilization according to the Prader scale. This report illustrates the subtle fetal genitalia assessment of a fetus with variations of sex development, such as vaginal atresia and abnormal curse of the urethra in the case of urogenital sinus. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing the prenatal range of virilization of external and internal genitalia.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Medical Ultrasound is the peer-reviewed publication of the Asian Federation of Societies for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology, and the Chinese Taipei Society of Ultrasound in Medicine. Its aim is to promote clinical and scientific research in ultrasonography, and to serve as a channel of communication among sonologists, sonographers, and medical ultrasound physicians in the Asia-Pacific region and wider international community. The Journal invites original contributions relating to the clinical and laboratory investigations and applications of ultrasonography.
