Abstract
Abstract Objectives Bilateral renal agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly that is associated with high neonatal mortality. Bilateral renal agenesis is most often present with anhydramniosis in the mid-trimester. Case presentation We report a case of bilateral renal agenesis diagnosed prenatally. We presented the ultrasound and pathology images of this fetus with a new sonographic sign, segmental anterior deviation in the abdominal aorta. Conclusions To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a fetus with a segmental aortic anterior deviation.
期刊介绍:
Case Reports in Perinatal Medicine is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal. The objective of the new journal is very similar to that of JPM. In addition to evidence-based studies, practitioners in clinical practice esteem especially exemplary reports of cases that reveal specific manifestations of diseases, its progress or its treatment. We consider case reports and series to be brief reports describing an isolated clinical case or a small number of cases. They may describe new or uncommon diagnoses, unusual outcomes or prognosis, new or infrequently used therapies and side effects of therapy not usually discovered in clinical trials. They represent the basic concept of experiences for studies on representative groups for further evidence-based research. The potential roles of case reports and case series are: Recognition and description of new diseases Detection of drug side effects (adverse or beneficial) Study of mechanisms of disease Medical education and audit Recognition of rare manifestations of disease.
