NEURAL TUBE DEFECT?
FAILURE OF THE NEURAL TUBE TO CLOSE COMPLETELY DURING DEVELOPMENT
CAUSING DEFECTS. EX: SPINA BIFIDA, CEPHALOCELE,HOLOENCEPHALY,
ANENCEPHALY ETC.
WHAT SCANNING PLANE IS BEST TO SEE SPINA BIFIDA?
BOTH TRV & SAG.
WHAT IS ACRANIA, ANENCEPHALY & HYDRAENCEPHALY?
Acrania: condition assoc. w/ anencephaly in which there is complete or partial absence of cranial bones.
Anencephaly: neural tube defect noted by lack of development of cerebral & cerebellar hemispheres & cranial vault. Incompatible w/life.
Hydraencephaly: congenital absence of the cerebral hemispheres b/c of an occlusion of carotid arteries midbrain sdtructures are present & fluid replaces cerebral tissue.

Meckel's Diverticulum
Most common malformation of the Midgut?
Meckel's Diverticulum
What are Haustral folds and where are they located?
Sacculations of the volon caused by longitudinal bands that are shorter than the gut. Located in colon.
Transpostion of the liver,stomach, absence of GB, Multiple spleens & disruption of IVC called?
Polysplenia
What is Duodenal Atresia?
Complete blockage of the Pyloric Sphincter.

Left side is 3x more likely.
Free floating bowel is suggestive of what?
Gastroschisis
What is amniotic band syndrome?
Rupture of the Amnion that leads to entrapment or entanglement of the fetal parts.
Where is the cord placed in Gastroschisis and Omphalocele?
Gastroschisis: Rt of Umbilical cord.
Omphalocele: Cord pierces central part.
Where does the most common diaphragmatic hernia occur?
Bochdalek hernia- 80 to 85% occur on the left Posterior lateral portion of the diaphragm.
If you see Pleural effusion what should you search carefully?
Search for lung, cardiac & diaphragmatic lesions, Also evaluate for signs of Hydrops. (Ascites, scalp edema, tissue edema)
What is Dandy-Walker syndrome?
