Intrauterine high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging in fetal hydrocephalus and prenatal estimation of postnatal outcomes with "perspective classification"

Journal of Neurosurgery

Abstract

It is possible to diagnose hydrocephalus prenatally based on the morphological appearance of the fetus on neurodiagnostic images; however, the prognosis of this disease shows wide variation. The authors previously proposed a classification system for the prediction of postnatal outcome based on progression of hydrocephalus and affected brain development, known as the "Perspective Classification of Congenital Hydrocephalus (PCCH)." In this study the authors have used their classification system to analyze long-term follow-up results obtained in each clinicoembryological stage of fetal hydrocephalus. Sixty-one fetuses with hydrocephalus were examined to predict postnatal outcome by using this newly developed classification. The authors' recently developed method of using heavily T2-weighted imaging with a superconducting magnet clearly delineated the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) space and the malformed brain and spinal cord. Imaging was achieved in less than 1 second per slice and required no sedation of the fetus. The technique appears to be simple and good at delineating intrauterine anatomy. Hydrocephalus was diagnosed in two fetuses at PCCH embryological Stage I (8-21 gestational weeks), in 28 fetuses at Stage II (22-31 weeks), ...Continue Reading
