Prenatal Diagnosis and Counseling in Case of Congenital Hemivertebra

Hemivertebra is a rare congenital disorder, where only one side of the vertebral body develops and it is even rarer to find it associated with a longitudinal bar. Prenatal ultrasound diagnostic features along with postnatal radiological correlation at 20 weeks gestation are presented in this report. Also, the relevant background, incidence, and associations are discussed for the clinicians especially obstetricians and radiologists to make them familiar with this condition.
