Olgu

A 31-year-old gravida 2 partus 1 woman was referred at 29 weeks' gestation with suspicion of intrauterine growth restriction. Sonographic examination revealed a single live fetus. Fetal biparietal diameter, abdominal circumference and femur length measurements were compatible with 25 weeks' gestation. Amniotic fluid index was 15 cm. Doppler velocimetry of umbilical artery was normal. A 7.3 cm placental thickness was measured.
Examination of the fetal anatomy revealed a deformity of the right lower limb and undescended testes with an irregular distal penis. The parents were informed and a cordocentesis was performed. The karyotype analysis revealed a deletion of the short arm of chromosome 4. After genetic counseling the family elected for termination of the pregnancy. Labor was induced and the woman delivered a stillborn male fetus weighing 900 g. The baby had prominent glabella, short philtrum, low-set ears, hypospadias, undescended testes and pes equinovalgus deformity of the right foot. Except for a large hydropic placenta, no additional anomaly was noted at autopsy. Chromosomal analysis of the woman revealed a normal karyotype.

Sonuç
 
The prenatal detection of intrauterine growth restriction, hypospadias and clubfoot should raise the suspicion of WHS particularly with a normal amniotic fluid.
