Radiographic, haematological, and biochemical findings in a fetus with Caffey disease
Abstract
An early case of prenatal Caffey disease is reported. Ultrasound examination performed at 20 weeks showed major angulations of long bones, but both ultrasound scan and X-rays failed to make the differential diagnosis between Caffey disease and lethal osteogenesis imperfecta. A cordocentesis allowed us to find important biological abnormalities. The pregnancy was terminated after the rapid development of hydrops fetalis. The definitive diagnosis of Caffey disease was obtained by special X-ray and pathological study.
