Differential Diagnosis
Cystic masses of the umbilical cord (Figures A and B) may be true cysts (allantoic duct or omphalomesenteric duct remnants), dilated vasculature, or pseudocysts (e.g., Wharton’s jelly cysts).
Ultrasound Imaging
When a cystic mass is detected, the exact etiology is difcult to determine with prenatal ultrasound. Color Doppler imag­ing should be used to determine if the vessels of the cord are compressed or thrombosed and to exclude a vascular anomaly as the cause of the cyst. Follow-up scans should be performed throughout the gestation period.
Associated Anomalies
Cysts that arise from either allantoic or omphalomesenteric ducts can be associated with genitourinary and gastrointestinal anomalies. Specic associations include bowel or genitourinary obstruction, hernia, omphalocele, and patent urachus. Recog­nition of an association with a patent urachus is essential to avoid the complication of transecting the urachus when cut­ting the umbilical cord, particularly if the cyst arises close to the anterior abdominal wall of the fetus. Omphalomesenteric duct cysts are lined with epithelium that can differentiate into gastric epithelia and possibly secrete acid. Ulceration can occur, resulting in a fetal hemorrhage. Pseudocysts are collections of liqueed Wharton’s jelly that may resolve but have also been reported in association with trisomy 18 and trisomy 13.

Comment
Differential Diagnosis
The differential diagnosis of mild ventriculomegaly includes numerous different causes of hydrocephalus. However, the nd­ing of three echogenic lines parallel to one another in the brain on an axial scan in association with mild colpocephaly is most commonly associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum.
Ultrasound Findings
Ultrasound features of complete agenesis of the corpus cal­losum include absent cavum septi pellucidi and complete agenesis of the corpus callosum. However, because the corpus callosum develops late in gestation, it is not completed until 18 weeks’ gestation. Early diagnosis of agenesis of the corpus callosum is difcult. There is usually ventriculomegaly involv­ing the atria and occipital horns; this is termed colpocephaly (Figures A and B). Separate parallel lines are noted on axial scan (Figure C). The ventricles form a “teardrop” congura­tion and are parallel to one another (Figure C). Displacement of the third ventricle and other intracranial abnormalities are often present and may be better diagnosed with MRI.
Prognosis and Management
The prognosis of complete agenesis of the corpus callosum depends on various factors. Malformations are identied in association with agenesis of the corpus callosum with a high frequency. Agenesis of the corpus callosum is associated with the major trisomies and various syndromes, including Meckel­Gruber syndrome, Miller-Dieker syndrome, and Aicardi syn­drome. A complete survey of the entire fetal anatomy should be performed. Karyotyping is advisable. In addition, multiple systemic anomalies are associated with agenesis of the corpus callosum, including cardiovascular, genitourinary, and gastro­intestinal malformations. In cases of isolated agenesis of the corpus callosum, children may have normal intelligence, but they may have peculiar neurologic ndings or cognitive decits ranging from subtle to more severe impairment.

Comment
Differential Diagnosis
The differential diagnosis of an adnexal mass on the right side occurring in pregnancy includes appendicitis with appen­diceal abscess; this is a common nonobstetric cause of acute abdominal pain and a mass in pregnancy. Other common non­obstetric etiologies of pain, such as acute cholecystitis, bowel obstruction, and renal colic, usually do not produce a mass. An adnexal mass with or without torsion seems to be the most
likely etiology of adnexal pain with a mass in pregnancy. Het­erotopic pregnancy manifesting as an adnexal mass is very rare.
Ultrasound Findings
Ultrasound features of heterotopic pregnancy include a nor­mal intrauterine pregnancy plus pregnancy located elsewhere, usually within the pelvis (Figure A). In this case, the ectopic pregnancy was in the left adnexa and ruptured, causing free uid in the pelvis (Figure B). Other locations of heterotopic pregnancy include the cervix and cornua. Cornual pregnancy may be difcult to recognize.
Ovarian torsion tends to occur with increased frequency in pregnancy, probably secondary to the mass effect of the preg­nancy. An estimated 45% of cases of ovarian torsion manifest during the second or third trimester of pregnancy. Twisting of the ovarian vascular pedicle may obstruct lymphatic ow and create an enlarged ovary. Venous ow may be obstructed, and arterial ow may be decreased (Figure C), but there may be decreased arterial diastolic Doppler signal. Free uid in the abdomen may be an associated nding. Ovarian torsion may also occur because of an underlying ovarian mass as in this case; the patient had a cystadenoma, which was present before pregnancy.
Prognosis and Management
Prognosis and management of an abdominal mass with pain during pregnancy depend on the etiology. Surgery is usually needed for ovarian torsion or heterotopic pregnancy, as in this case.

Comment
Etiology and Incidence
Circumvallate placenta, or placenta extrachorialis, is a com­mon disorder. Complete circumvallate placenta occurs in 1%
of pregnancies; partial circumvallate placenta is estimated to occur 10 to 20 times more commonly. This condition results from a mismatch in growth at the placental margin. In typi­cal placentation, there is a smooth transition from the paren­chymal villous chorion to the membranous chorion. In partial or complete circumvallate placenta, the parenchymal villous chorion overgrows and bulges into the amniotic uid. This leaves villous tissue of the chorionic frondosum that is not completely covered by the amniochorionic membrane—hence the term placenta extrachorialis.
Ultrasound Imaging
In circumvallate placenta, the parenchymal villous chorionic tissue bulges out peripherally and the edge of the placenta develops a rolled appearance (Figure A). Amniotic shelves or sheets (Figure B), thought to be due to synechiae covered by amniochorionic membrane, are usually larger but otherwise similar in appearance to a circumvallate placenta. Ultrasound is neither sensitive nor specic for diagnosis, as shown by one study by experienced sonologists.
Clinical Significance
The clinical signicance of circumvallate placenta is uncer­tain. It has been associated with low birth weight, prematurity, intrauterine growth restriction, placental abruption, and peri­natal death. In addition, congenital anomalies may be present, although the exact etiology of this nding is uncertain.

Comment
Differential Diagnosis
The differential diagnosis in this case is broad and includes all forms of severe short limb dwarsm: homozygous
achondroplasia, asphyxiating thoracic dysplasia (Jeune syn­drome), chondroectodermal dysplasia, and thanatophoric dysplasia. Four major types of skeletal dysplasias account for nearly two thirds of all dysplasias. The most common skeletal dysplasia is thanatophoric dysplasia, followed by heterozygous achondroplasia, osteogenesis imperfecta, and achondrogen­esis. Of these, thanatophoric dysplasia is the most common lethal dysplasia, whereas heterozygous achondroplasia is the most common nonlethal skeletal dysplasia.
Ultrasound Findings
A striking ultrasound nding is marked discrepancy between the femur length measurements and other biometric data as seen in this case (Figure A). There are two different types of thanatophoric dysplasia: type I and type II. Features seen in both types include a small thorax and short femur. In type II, a cloverleaf skull is prominent. Progressive hydrocephalus is often present when the cloverleaf skull deformity is identi­ed (Figures B to D). Polyhydramnios may develop in many cases. In addition to hydrocephalus, associated abnormalities include renal abnormalities, atrial septal defects, and imper­forate anus.
Prognosis and Management
Thanatophoric dysplasia is uniformly a lethal condition. The cause of death is respiratory failure secondary to hypoplastic lungs. Most cases result from new mutations. There is a small risk of recurrence.
