Pentalogy of Cantrell (POC) is a rare condition characterized by complete or partial expression of 5 types of congenital birth defects originating in (1) the lower sternum, (2) the anterior diaphragm, (3) the diaphragmatic pericardium, (4) the midline/ventral supraumbilical abdominal wall region, and (5) the heart. POC can be diagnosed antenatally by means of ultrasonography (US), the task being difficult if defects are minor. Advances in the field of US and the introduction of the first morphology trimester as state-of-the-art pregnancy monitoring, facilitate the early diagnosis of this condition. We performed a systematic review on 67 reported cases of POC diagnosed in the first trimester of pregnancy (published from January 1980 to July 2019). The aim of our systematic review was twofold: to assess the main US findings in the first trimester of pregnancy and to increase awareness of early diagnostic possibilities. Our study showed that POC can be diagnosed in the first trimesterof pregnancy based on key US findings such as the association between omphalocele and ectopia cordis. When these two anomalies are present, increased nuchal translucency can also be considered a marker of POC in the first trimester.

Congenital Malformation Syndrome

ABSTRACT Pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare multiple congenital malformation syndrome characterized by a combination of five features: A midline supraumbilical abdominal wall defect; a defect of the lower sternum; a defect of the diaphragmatic pericardium; deficiency of the anterior diaphragm and congenital cardiac anomalies. These defects can be diagnosed as early as the first trimester of pregnancy. The complexity of these anomalies, in particular the presence of any cardiac defects, determines the management as well as the prognosis. We report a case of pentalogy of Cantrell diagnosed by ultrasound at 32 weeks of gestational age, the fetus died 3 hours after delivery.

Intracardiac Defect

We report the prenatal diagnosis of Cantrell syndrome in the first trimester. During a routine transabdominal ultrasonographic examination, a midline supraumbilical abdominal wall defect including herniated liver and ectopia cordis with a large omphalocele containing the intestines and cystic hygroma was incidentally identified at the 12th week of gestation. A transvaginal sonography examination revealed a severe lumbosacral scoliosis in addition to the inability to visualize the abdominal aorta which was indicative of a severe intracardiac defect. The parents opted for pregnancy to be terminated. In this case report, we discuss the complementary role of transvaginal sonography and Doppler imaging in the diagnosis of Cantrell syndrome in early pregnancy.

A clinical case of early diagnosis of Pentalogy of Cantrell (POC) in a newborn infant is presented. The features of the formation of the defect and its classification are described. A crucial role in verifying the diagnosis was performed by CT scan with intravenous contrast, which revealed a narrowing of the pulmonary artery trunk; located subcutaneously above the umbilical ring, the diverticulum of the left ventricle of the heart, originating from the apical section of the left ventricle and connected to its cavity by a linear isthmus located along the middle line, as well as a local defect of the diaphragm in the anterior section. Taking into account the accumulated experience, it is generally recognized that when establishing this diagnosis in the first trimester, termination of pregnancy is more preferable. Therefore, parents should be notified of a possible adverse outcome in a timely manner. The presented observation reflects the high importance of early diagnosis of congenital forms of combined pathology in children, requiring the use of modern research methods to determine the tactics and conduct timely effective treatment.
