2. Porencephalic cyst
Porencephaly is a rare congenital disorder that results in cystic
degeneration and encephalomalacia and the formation
of porencephalic cysts. Porencephalic cysts were originally described
by R Heschl in 1859
Broadest definition being a cleft or cystic cavity within the brain .
Narrow definition being a focal cystic area of encephalomalacia that
communicates with the ventricular system and/or the subarachnoid space.
3. The necessity of a cyst communicating with the ventricular system and
/ or subarachnoid space to earn the designation porencephaly is a point
of contention.
Porencephalic cysts can into
1. Internal (communicating with the ventricle)
2. External (communicating with the subarachnoid space).
PRACTICALLY :
porencephaly is taken to mean the following: a cystic lesion of
the brain due to an encephaloclastic insult (e.g. intrauterine
infections and ischaemia), lined by white matter, which
communicates with the ventricles and/or the subarachnoid
space.

4. Aetiology
Perinatal cerebral ischaemia
Trauma
Infection
Antenatal intraparenchymal haemorrhage
Familial porencephaly: mutations in the COL4A1 gene: fragile
blood vessels related to haemorrhagic strokes
Porencephalic cyst
5. Porencephalic cyst is not lined by grey matter,It is
helpful in distinguishing them from arachnoid cysts
and schizencephaly.

6. MUSCLE HERNIA
Muscle hernias
Focal defect in the muscle fascia with protrusion of
muscle through the defect.
Most commonly found in the lower extremities,
Occasionally in the upper extremities
May be single or multiple.
The most commonly involved muscle is the tibialis
anterior. VIDEO CLIP
OF MUSCLE HERNIA
7. Muscle hernias are
Typically asymptomic
Can cause cramping sensations or pain with or after activity.
May also present as a palpable mass and be referred for
imaging to evaluate for neoplasia.
The mass may not be palpable when the patient is relaxed,
which is a clinical clue to the diagnosis.
MUSCLE HERNIA
8. Ultrasound is the modality of choice in evaluation of suspected muscle
hernia, although MRI may be ordered if there is suspicion of neoplasia.
Light pressure examination is preferable, so as not to reduce or efface
the herniation. Contraction of the involved muscle may reveal or
accentuate the lesion.
The hernia is often hypoechoic to the surrounding muscle, and may
assume a mushroom shape as it protrudes through and over the fascial
defect (the defect is of the deep layer of the deep fascia.) It may thin or
elevate the superficial layer of the deep fascia that overlies the muscle.

9. SEPTO-OPTIC DYSPLASIA
Septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) is a condition characterised by
Optic nerve hypoplasia
Absence of septum pellucidum
Two thirds of patients hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction.
Being part of the holoprosencephaly spectrum.
ABSENT SEPTUM PELLUCIDUM
10. Risk factors
Maternal diabetes
Medications
quinidine ingestion
antiepileptics
Drug and alcohol abuse
Cytomegalovirus infection

12. Clinical presentation of septo-optic dysplasia is varied, and largely
dependent of whether or not it is associated with schizencephaly (~
50% of cases). This association is used to define two forms of
the condition .
Not associated with schizencephaly
visual apparatus more severely affected
hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction present in 60-80% of patients
may present as hypoglycaemia in the neonatal period
small pituitary gland with hypoplastic or absent infundibulum and ectopic
posterior pituitary seen as focus of T1 high signal intensity in median eminence
of hypothalamus
olfactory bulbs may be absent (Kallmann syndrome)
Associated with schizencephaly
optic apparatus less severely affected
cortical anomalies: polymicrogyria, cortical dysplasia
may be etiologically different
sometimes referred to as septo-optic dysplasia plus

17. FETAL ADACTYLY
The detection of a fetal hand malformation
warrants a complete work-up, including
complete fetal and cardiac US
examinations, as well as genetic counseling
to determine whether familial inquiry and
karyotype analysis are necessary.

18. FETAL LIMB ANOMALIES A BRIEF
MALFORMATION
A morphologic defect of an organ, part of an organ, or larger region of
the body resulting from an intrinsically abnormal developmental process
(eg, phocomelia, polydactyly).
DEFORMATION
An abnormal shape or position of part of the body caused by mechanical
forces (eg. clubfeet).
DISRUPTION
A morphologic defect of an organ, part of an organ, or a segment of the
body caused by an extrinsic factor interfering with an originally normal
developmental process (eg. amniotic band sequence).
Higher in upper limb.
More on Rt side.
Usually unilateral than bilateral.
20. TERMINOLOGY FOR QUICK REFERENCE
Phocomelia
Arms/forearms and thighs/calves are missing or foreshortened, the hands/feet may be normal or abnormal.
Clinodactyly is a fixed deviation of the digitis.
Asymmetrical hypoplasia of the mid-phalanx with the medial part being shorter than the lateral part, resulting in radial angulation of the distal phalanx.
Clenched hand
Second and fifth fingers overlap the third and fourth with an adducted thumb, it is important to evaluate, on ultrasound scan, if it is a persistent or a
temporary finding.
Camptodactyly
Flexion contracture of one of the interphalangeal joints.
Abnormalities of length or width.
Macrodactyly
Rhizomelic (short femurs or humeri),
Mesomelic (short forearms or calves)
Acromelic (involving the hands or the feet).
Polydactyly
Presence of extra digit/s in the upper or lower extremities.
Radial side (preaxial)
Ulnar side (postaxial) polydactyly.
ECTRODACTYLY:
Split hand/foot deformity, also known as lobate claw hand/foot, results from the absence of the central digits/ toes with a deep V- or U-shaped central
cleft.
Thumb abnormalities
Thumb hypoplasia
Triphalangeal thumb
Broad thumb
Hitchhiker thumb
Abnormally abducted position of a more proximally inserted thumb .
21. Agenesis of corpus callosum
Dysgenesis of the corpus
callosum may be complete (agenesis) or
partial and represents an in
utero developmental anomaly.
It can be divided into:
primary agenesis: the corpus
callosum never forms
secondary dysgenesis: the corpus callosum
forms normally and is subsequently
destroyed
22. ANTENATAL ULTRASOUND FINDINGS
third ventricle
dilated
can be elevated or dorsally displaced 8
may communicate with the interhemispheric cistern
may project superiorly as a dorsal cyst
choroid may be seen as echogenic structure in the roof of the cyst
lateral ventricles
widely spaced parallel bodies (racing car sign)
small frontal horns
colpocephaly: which can give a "tear drop" configuration on axial scans
septum pellucidum: absent
interhemispheric fissures: widened
gyri: may be seen in a "sunray appearance" on the sagittal plane
colour Doppler study may show an abnormal course of pericallosal arteries
