Prenatal diagnosis by ultrasound of midface defects associated with holoprosencephaly.
Authors present cases of cyclopia, cebocephaly associated with holoprosencephaly, diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound. A detailed description of ultrasound findings is given. When intracranial anatomy appears abnormal, the orbits must be visualized, the interorbital diameter must be measured and facial malformations should be looked for.
