Introduction Introduction. meckel-gruber syndrome is a rare and lethal autosomal recessive disorder http://www.ijri.org/20011104/case.htm
Extractions: Meckel-Gruber syndrome is a rare and lethal autosomal recessive disorder characterized by occipital encephalocele, postaxial polydactyly and bilateral dysplastic cystic kidneys. It can be associated with many other conditions. Antenatal ultrasound examination can establish the correct diagnosis by identifying at least two of the major features described. A twenty-five-year-old woman with 16 weeks amenorrhea was referred for a second trimester ultrasonogram to detect fetal anomalies. There was history of first-degree consanguinity. The patient had two previous second trimester abortions. Records were not available and the patient stated that both the abortions were due to abnormal kidneys. Ultrasonography was done using GE logiq 500 PRO equipment, with a 4MHz Curvilinear transducer. The scan revealed bilateral enlarged hyperechoic kidneys (Fig.1,2), occipital encephalocele (Fig.3), six digits in all four limbs (Fig.4) and bilateral clubfeet. Though there was no oligohydramnios the fetal urinary bladder was not visualised both in the initial scan and in all repeat scans done over a period of two days.

Extractions: 1. In 1992 a 27 year old woman was seen in our obstetric ultrasound department, because of routine sonography for her first pregnancy of 16 weeks and 4 days. Her general history were negative, as was her family history. The ultrasound showed dilated ventricles and an occipital encephalocele. Both kidneys showed multiple cysts (picture 1.) Diagnosis: Meckel-Gruber syndrome. A few days later her pregnancy was terminated with a sulproston infusion. Pathology confirmed the diagnosis. Next to the already described malformations the right foot counted 6 toes, while the left hand showed an extra finger. Because the Meckel-Gruber syndrome is a recessive disease, she was told that she had a 25% chance of having an affected fetus in her next pregnancy. 2. Five months later she reported a new pregnancy. At 9 weeks she seemed to have a normal ultrasound, but at 12 weeks a cranial cyst was seen (picture 2.). Pathology: because of the curettage it was difficult to recognize fetal parts. However two hands with 6 fingers each were found. This seems a confirmation of the diagnosis M-G syndrome.

Extractions: (advertisement) Synonyms, Key Words, and Related Terms: MKS, dysencephalia splanchnocystica, Gruber syndrome, Gruber's syndrome, Meckel syndrome type 1, MKS1, MES Background: Meckel-Gruber syndrome (MKS) (OMIM 24900) is a lethal, rare autosomal recessive condition mapped to chromosome 17. The triad of occipital encephalocele, large polycystic kidneys, and postaxial polydactyly characterizes MKS. Associated abnormalities include oral clefting, genital anomalies, CNS malformations, and fibrosis of the liver. Pulmonary hypoplasia is the leading cause of death. With the advent of ultrasonography, prenatal diagnosis is possible during the second trimester or late first trimester. Pathophysiology: It has been suggested that a failure of mesodermal induction causes MKS. The induction cascades of early morphogenesis involve numerous growth factors, homeo box genes, and paired domain genes. Frequency:
