Prenatal and Postnatal Imaging of Multiple Intracranial Lipomas: Report of a Case

Objectives: To report the antenatal pictures of a fetus with multiple intracranial lipomas. Methods: A 36-year-old primigravida,33 weeks of gestation, was referred to our ultrasound laboratory due to sonographic suspicion of an intracranial\r\nhemorrhage. Results: At 2D and 3D ultrasound imaging,three separated round-shaped hyperechoic intracranial\r\nmasses compatible with multiple lipomas were documented. Absence of corpus callosum was associated. Sonographic\r\nfindings were confirmed by antenatal and postnatal MRI.\r\nConclusions: Multiple intracranial lipomas in a fetus with absent\r\ncorpus callosum have been infrequently described.Prognostic implications remain uncertain.
