Prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of macroglossia in the Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome.
We report the ultrasound prenatal diagnosis at the 30th week of macroglossia in two sibs with the Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome; the syndrome was also present in their mother. A study of high resolution chromosomes did not show any anomaly.
