Abstract
Abstract
Congenital intracranial teratoma is a well-recognized but infrequent entity. The prognosis is poor with death usually occurring shortly after birth. Teratomas are usually characterized by complete loss of the normal intracranial architecture. In this paper, we presented a case with a massive fetal intracranial teratoma that replaced the cerebral hemispheres and that was initially diagnosed by ultrasonography and further evaluated by prenatal magnetic resonance imaging.
Keywords: Intracranial teratoma, fetus, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging
Özet
Konjenital intrakraniyal teratom, iyi bilinen ancak nadir bir durumdur. Doğum sonrası kısa sürede meydana gelen ölüm nedeniyle prognozu kötüdür. Teratomlar, genellikle normal intrakraniyal yapının tam kaybı ile karakterizedir. Bu yazıda, ultrasonografi ve prenatal manyetik rezonans görüntüleme ile tanı konulan ve serebral hemisferlerde yer değiştirmeye neden olan masif fetal intrakraniyal teratomlu bir olgu tanımlandı.
