Abstract

Introduction: Pentalogy of Cantrell is a congenital malformation syndrome characterized by midline thoracoabdominal wall defect, intracardiac anomalies, sternum lower end defect, absence of pericardium on diapraghma side and diapraghma defects.
Case Report: In this article, we report a case of prenatal diagnosed Cantrell Pentalogy in 20th gestational weeks. 
Conclusion: The ethiology of Cantrell syndrome is not certain yet, but probably the syndrome occurs due to the insufficient migration of intraembryonic mesoderm to ventromedialis. Thoracoabdominal type ectopia cordis, one of five different ectopia cordis types, is frequently found in the components of Cantrell pentalogy.

Cantrell pentalojisi: olgu sunumu

Abstract

Giriş: Cantrell pentolojisi; orta hat supra-umbilikal karın ön yüzü defekti, sternum alt ucu defekti, perikardın diafragma yüzünün olmayışı, diafragma ön yüz eksikliği ve çeşitli intrakardiyak anomaliler ile tanımlanmıştır.
Olgu: Bu olgu sunumunda 20. gebelik haftasında prenatal olarak tanımlanmış bir Cantrell sendromlu olgu sunularak, Cantrell sendromunun literatür eşliğinde tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.
Sonuç: Cantrell sendromunun sebebi kesin olarak bilinmemekle birlikte, patogenezinde intraembriyonik mezodermin ventromedial yönde migrasyonunda yetersizlik sonucu oluştuğu düşünülmektedir. Beş farklı ektopia kordis tipinden biri olan torakoabdominal tip ektopia kordis durumu Cantrell pentalojisinin de bileşenleri içerisinde sıklıkla yer almaktadır.
