The role of integrated imaging techniques for prenatal prediction of phenotype in two cases of facial anomalies.

abstract：:Single umbilical artery is among the most common funicular vascular anomalies. In contrast, umbilical artery stenosis is rare, and has only been reported in three-vessel cords. We describe a case of single umbilical artery stenosis in a fetus with no associated malformations. Intrauterine fetal death occurred at 28 we...
