Abstract EN
Pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare malformation described in the literature.
We report a case of pentalogy of Cantrell associated with left limb deficiency in a twin pregnancy.
The fetus with multiple anomalies revealed kyphosis, ectopia cordis, and a large defect with protruding liver and bowel loops at 12 weeks and 3 days of gestational age on ultrasound scan.
The other fetus was ultrasonographically normal.
We diagnosed a case of pentalogy of Cantrell in a twin pregnancy after exclusion of limb body wall complex, body stalk anomaly, and amniotic band syndrome and after delivery of the fetuses.
Macroscopic examinations were ectopia cordis, extrusion of the abdominal organs without membranes surrounding, and agenesis of the left limb.
