    Abstract Sotos syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that occurs in less than 1 in 10,000 births. It is characterized by rapid growth during childhood (tall stature and unusually large head), typical facial dysmorphic features, neurodevelopmental delays of both mental and movement abilities, and learning disabilities. Prenatal diagnosis of Sotos syndrome is infrequent and sonographic findings are not well characterized as the condition is generally detected during childhood. We present a case in which routine third trimester ultrasound detected intracranial findings including ventriculomegaly, periventricular pseudocysts, and increased periventricular echogenicity. Although initially suspected to be the result of fetal infection with CMV, amniocentesis excluded fetal infection and microarray analysis detected a de novo 2.13 MB interstitial deletion of 5q35.2-35.3 involving several genes including the NSD1 gene, thus confirming the diagnosis of Sotos syndrome. This case provides novel characterization of the sonographic phenotype in a fetus with Sotos syndrome and discusses the differential diagnosis.

    Abstract A 36 years old woman in her first pregnancy was referred at 24w3d for a dedicated neurosonographic examination due to a suspected short corpus callosum (CC). The examination depicted a dysgenetic CC with asymmetric thickness at the level of the body in coronal views, very thin in the midline and thicker in both sides, suggesting bilateral formation of Probst bundles. The BPD, HC, and transverse cerebellar diameters were in the normal low range without associated growth restriction. Associated anomalies were not detected in the brain or other organs. Following genetic consultation and a normal CMA, trio exome sequencing was performed and a de novo missense pathogenic mutation c.2353 C > T in the DHX30 gene was detected. This variant has been previously reported in children and adults, mostly with a severe phenotype including neurodevelopmental disorder with variable motor and language impairment, but also mild phenotypes have been reported. MRI describes delayed myelination, ventriculomegaly, and cortical and cerebellar atrophy as imaging features in affected patients. This is the first prenatal report of a DHX30-associated neurodevelopmental disorder in which the fetus presents with isolated callosal dysgenesis, stressing the importance of exome sequencing in fetuses with this condition, as far as it is phenotypic presentation of numerous syndromes with different outcomes.

    Abstract Objective: To study the early second trimester development of brain hemispheres, lateral ventricles, choroid plexus, and ganglionic eminence/basal ganglia complex (GEBG).
    Methods: A retrospective analysis of TVUS 3D volumes of 14-18 gestational weeks (GW) fetuses. Hemispheres were analyzed for wall thickness, choroid plexus extension, GEBG height and length, lamination pattern (intermediate zone and the subplate border, IZ-SP), ventricle height, width, and angle. Measurements were correlated with GW and assessed for symmetry and impact of probe resolution.
    Results: We included 84 fetuses (168 hemispheres). The CP location is variable at 14-16 GW, becoming consistently and symmetrically posterior at 18 GW. Hemispheric thickness, GEBG height and length grow significantly with fetal age, whereas ventricle height, width, and angle regress. The detection rate of the IZ-SP line at 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 weeks was 0%, 24%, 78.26%, 100%, and 100%, respectively. The ratio between the upper and lower segments of the cerebral lamination grows with GW. For all brain structures, the asymmetry between sides was significant only for ventricular height. The transducer type did not have a significant effect on any outcome except for ventricle height.
    Conclusion: These normal features of the parasagittal view should aid clinicians in fetal brain assessment during the early weeks of the second trimester.
