Neurosonographic abnormalities in chromosomal disorders.
A retrospective study of cranial sonograms in infants with autosomal trisomies excluding Down's syndrome was performed. A range of abnormalities was found including structural anomalies, vascular changes and hydrocephalus. Although nonspecific, many of these abnormalities can suggest a specific chromosomal abnormality in the appropriate clinical setting.
