✦ Synopsis

Abstract

We describe the prenatal sonographic findings in a case of Klippel‐Trénaunay‐Weber syndrome including fetal ascites and subcutaneous cystic lesions associated with a relatively low level of maternal serum alpha‐fetoprotein and a relatively high level of maternal serum β‐human chorionic gonadotrophin. Klippel‐Trénaunay‐Weber syndrome may present prenatally with fetal ascites and an abnormal maternal serum screening result in addition to fetal limb hypertrophy and subcutaneous cystic lesions. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Most cases of KTW syndrome are sporadic. However, in a few, other family members have some clinical manifestations of the syndrome, and an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance has been suggested. In this paper we present a family with an affected child who has large skin hemangiomata, overgrowth o
