title: A rare case of recurrent fetal goiter.
abstract: We report the case of fetal goiter which occurred in two consecutive pregnancies in the same patients. The first one, due to too late diagnosis and no intrauterine treatment, contributed to the immediate postnatal death of the newborn; the second one was properly diagnosed at 19 weeks and then effectively treated prenatally which allowed to avoid the fatal complications for the fetus and the newborn.
