Prenatal Ultrasonographic Diagnosis of Klippel - Trenaunay - Weber Syndrome: Case Report

Abstract

Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome is characterized by capillary malformations, soft tissue or bony hypertrophy and varicose veins or venous malformations. Prenatal diagnosis is possible by careful ultrasound examination and keeping in mind is important for diagnosis. In this report we present a case of prenatal fetal ascites which latterly diagnosed as Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome.

Ultrasonografi ile Prenatal Klippel - Trenaunay - Weber Sendrom Tanısı: Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber sendromu ciltte ve cilt altında hamartamatöz lezyonlar, kemik ve yumuşak dokuda kistik oluşumlarla giden bir sendromdur. Hastalığın tanısında ve yönetiminde dikkatli ultrasonografik inceleme ve bu sendromun akılda tutulması büyük ölçüde yeterli olmaktadır. Bu yazıda ultrasonografik olarak fetal asit izlenen ve takibinde Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber sendrom tanısı alan olguyu paylaştık.
