Anencephaly in a triplet pregnancy: Unprecedented spontaneous reabsorption in-utero and subsequent normal delivery via c-section: A rare case report.
Radiology Case Reports 2024 July
Multiple pregnancies are infrequently encountered, with the incidence of spontaneous triplet pregnancies estimated at approximately 1 in 7000 pregnancies. Triplet gestations are recognized for their propensity to bring about a spectrum of pregnancy related complexities, encompassing fetal structural abnormalities, neurological anomalies, disturbances in amniotic fluid levels, preterm labor, and suboptimal neonatal outcomes. Anencephaly is a serious congenital defect where the brain and skull do not fully develop, often leading to a poor prognosis. It's a preventable neural tube defect (NTD) with timely intake of folic acid, is caused by the incomplete closure of the neural tube during fetal development, resulting in the absence of the cerebrum (responsible for thinking and coordination) and the front part of the brain (forebrain) in affected infants. While anencephaly in a triplet is scarcely reported, spontaneous reabsorption of an anencephalic fetus in utero is a rare and unexpected event, with no documented cases in triplet pregnancies until now. We report a case of anencephaly in a triplet pregnancy where the mother presented late during her third trimester, the reabsorption of the anencephalic fetus in utero is an unprecedented event, highlighting the unique nature of this triplet pregnancy.
