An extremely rare case of sirenomelia in dicephalic parapagus twins discordant for anencephaly and spina bifida that was diagnosed after birth is presented. High incidence of congenital anomalies both with sirenomelia and parapagus twins independently make the prognosis much worse, with additional neural tube defect rendering it almost incompatible with life. Termination of pregnancy is advised when diagnosed in utero. Key words: anencephaly, dicephalic parapagus, spina bifida, sirenomelia

Pentalogy Of Cantrell

Pentalogy of Cantrell is an extremely rare and lethal syndrome. Ectopia cordis is frequently found in fetuses with POC but not required for incomplete forms. Likewise, meningomyelocele is a relatively uncommon neural tube defect affecting central nervous system and associated with neurological problems. Herein, we presented a woman with dizygotic twin pregnancy having coincidence of incomplete POC and MMC in each individual fetus, which has never been reported previously.

Medical Induction

Iniencephaly is a rare neural tube defect that was firstly reported by Saint-Hilaire in 1836. Its incidence ranges from 0.1 to 10 in 10,000 deliveries with higher incidence in females. The most common features present iniencephaly are bifida at the cervical region, defect in the occipital bone and retroflexion of the head on the cervical spine. Here we report a case of a 24 years old second gravida with a history of consanguinity. She presented with a malformed fetus at 22 weeks gestation diagnosed by detailed ultrasonographic anatomy scan as iniencephaly apparatus. Termination of pregnancy was performed vaginally through medical induction by prostaglandins.

Maternal Risks

Iniencephaly is an uncommon neural tube defect, having retroflexion of the head without a neck and severe distortion of the spine. Iniencephaly is classified into two groups, iniencephaly apertus (with encephalocele) and iniencephaly clausus (without encephalocele). Incidence ranges from 0.1 to 10 in 10.000 pregnancies and it is seen more frequently in girls. Most of the fetuses with this defect die before birth or soon after birth, while those with the milder forms may live through childhood. Recurrence risk is around 1–5%. Family should be offered termination to reduce maternal risks and counseled for folic acid supplementation before the next planned pregnancy. Here we present a rare case of iniencephaly clausus which was diagnosed at 18th week of gestation by ultrasonography and delivered in the third trimester of pregnancy due to rejection of termination.

Cephaloceles are congenital neural tube defect causing herniations of intracranial structures (dura, brous tissue and dysplastic brain tissue) through a skull defect. Frequently associated with other intracranial anomalies like grey matter heterotopia, Vein of Galen malformations, Ventriculomegaly, Walker–Warburg syndrome, lobar holoprosencephaly, Dandy–Walker syndrome, hypogenesis of the corpus callosum, interhemispheric cysts, microphthalmia, and retro-ocular cysts.We are presenting a rare case of persistent embryonic sinus presenting with parietal cephalocele.
