[Prenatal ultrasonographic diagnosis of congenital isolated developmental defects of fetal extremities]. 1991

A M Stygar, and V N Demidov

The paper shows that echography can be used in the diagnosis of most congenital fetal limb developmental defects. The detection accuracy for severe anatomic defects was 83.3%. That for mild hand and foot developmental defects was achieved in 54.8% of the cases. Bilateral coxofemoral joint dislocation was diagnosed only in 2 fetuses. The paper also presents echograms of most malformations detected and emphasizes that it is essential to make a comprehensive and detailed examination of all fetal limbs.
