Pre and postnatal diagnosis of fetus-in-fetu
Abstract
Differentiation of abdominal masses detected on prenatal ultrasound is difficult and requires careful characterization of the mass and precise localization. Differentiation is required in order to distinguish benign from potentially malignant conditions. We describe a case of fetus-in-fetu with pre- and postnatal imaging.
