Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Hirschsprung disease (HD) is a rare gastrointestinal disorder. Our aim was to study the prenatal ultrasound findings of children who were diagnosed with HD after birth. METHODS:The study population included children who suffered from HD between 1990 and 2008. Data of anomaly scan findings in prenatal ultrasound, demographic and post-natal physical abnormalities and treatment were retrieved from medical files and interviews with the parents. RESULTS:Twenty-two patients confirmed histopathological diagnosis of HD at age of 1 day to 15 months. Nineteen fetuses had anomaly scan during pregnancy, which revealed minor sonographic abnormalities in three fetuses; two of them had hyperechogenic bowel. One fetus with hyperechogenic bowel had polyhydramnion, and another had a family history of three brothers with HD. A third fetus had dilated pelvic kidney. None of them had sonographic evidence of bowel dilatation. After birth, six patients (31%) were found to have other structural anomalies: ventriculoseptal defect, atriseptal defect, atrio-ventricular septal defect, and pyloric stenosis. CONCLUSIONS:Abnormal sonographic findings of fetal bowel are absent in the vast majority of fetuses who are diagnosed with HD after birth. In women with a family history of HD, a third trimester anomaly scan may be warranted.
