Prenatal Detection of a <i>FOXF1</i> Deletion in a Fetus with ACDMPV and Hydronephrosis

Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV) is a lethal lung developmental disorder caused by the arrest of fetal lung formation, resulting in neonatal death due to acute respiratory failure and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Heterozygous single-nucleotide variants o...

description Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV) is a lethal lung developmental disorder caused by the arrest of fetal lung formation, resulting in neonatal death due to acute respiratory failure and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Heterozygous single-nucleotide variants or copy-number variant (CNV) deletions involving the <i>FOXF1</i> gene and/or its lung-specific enhancer are found in the vast majority of ACDMPV patients. ACDMPV is often accompanied by extrapulmonary malformations, including the gastrointestinal, cardiac, or genitourinary systems. Thus far, most of the described ACDMPV patients have been diagnosed post mortem, based on histologic evaluation of the lung tissue and/or genetic testing. Here, we report a case of a prenatally detected de novo CNV deletion (~0.74 Mb) involving the <i>FOXF1</i> gene in a fetus with ACDMPV and hydronephrosis. Since ACDMPV is challenging to detect by ultrasound examination, the more widespread implementation of prenatal genetic testing can facilitate early diagnosis, improve appropriate genetic counselling, and further management.
