Abstract
The case report presents a 25-year-old woman who got pregnant twice in 1 year. Both pregnancies were terminated after ultrasound examination demonstrated limb abnormalities. Radiological and pathological examinations showed diastrophic dysplasia, a rare form of an osteochondrodysplasia with autosomal recessive inheritance. Here the histopathological findings in the cartilage and prenatal diagnosis by ultrasound are discussed.
Zusammenfassung
Berichtet wird der Fall einer 25jährigen Frau, die binnen eines Jahres 2mal schwanger wurde und bei der beide Schwangerschaften nach ultrasonographischem Nachweis von Skelettfehlbildungen unterbrochen wurden. Radiologische und pathologisch-anatomische Untersuchungen ergaben Merkmale einer diastrophischen Dysplasie, einer sehr seltenen autosomal rezessiv bedingten Osteochondrodysplasie. Im vorliegenden Fallbericht wird auf die Möglichkeit der pränatalen Diagnostik und auf die wenig bekannten histomorphologischen Knochenveränderungen eingegangen.
