Abstract
Exencephaly is a rare precursor of anencephaly in which a large amount of brain tissue is present despite the absence of the calvaria. It was discovered together with hydramnios in a near-term fetus. Sonographic, angiographic and pathologic findings are discussed.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
