Prenatal diagnosis of tracheal atresia in a twin pregnancy
Original language description
We describe typical sonographic findings and differential diagnoses, correlating them to pathological findings, in a case diagnosed at second-trimester ultrasound. Tracheal atresia is a rare congenital malformation with associated mortality approaching 100%. The prenatal sonographic appearance of tracheal atresia manifests as bilateral uniform hyperechoic lungs and ascites. When bilateral hyperechoic lungs are observed, congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation type III must be considered. Typical CHAOS is characterized by enlarged hyperechoic lungs, fluid-filled dilated trachea and bronchi with lack of flow in the trachea during fetal breathing, compression of the heart, with or without cardiac dysfunction, flattened diaphragm and/or massive ascites.
