Abstract

Fibular hemimelia is "the congenital partial or total absence of the fibula and it is the most frequent lower limb deficiency anomalies. Prenatal sonographic diagnosis of this anomaly is important to prepare the patient for surgery and to raise awareness of the family for the therapeutic approach after birth. There are few published cases of its prenatal diagnosis. All these cases were in type 2 group with total absence of fibula which were relatively easy to diagnose by antenatal ultrasound. In this case we aim to discuss the ultrasoud findings of a fetus with partial deficiency of the fibula associated foot equinovalgus, and absence of the fourth and fifth foot rays and metatars diagnosed at 24 weeks gestation by literature.

Özet

Fibular Hemimeli, fibulanın doğuştan parsiyel ya da total yokluğu olup, en sık görülen alt ekstremite eksiklik anomalisidir. Anomalinin prenatal ultrason tanısı aileyi doğum sonrası yapılacak cerrahiyi de içerebilen tedavi seçeneklerine hazırlamak ve ailenin doğum sonrası süreçle ilgili bilinçlendirilmesi açısından önemlidir. Olgunun prenatal sonografik tanısına ait literatürde çok yayın yoktur. Literaturde antenatal tanı konmuş olgular Tip 2 hemimeli (fibulanın total yokluğu) şeklinde olup ultrasonla tanınması kısmen daha kolay vakalardır. Biz bu sunumumuzda tek taraflı parsiyel fibular hemimeli, ekinovalgus, metatars yokluğu olan 24 haftalık fetusun sonografik bulgularını literatür eşliğinde tartışmayı amaçladık.
