Prenatal Ultrasonographic Diagnosis of Proximal Focal Femoral Deficiency
Proximal focal femoral deficiency (PFFD) is a developmental defect of acetabulum and proximal femur. Prenatal diagnosis of this condition is increasing with widespread use of ultrasonography. We report a case of unilateral PFFD with absent fibula. Clinical findings, diagnosis and management of this...

| description | Proximal focal femoral deficiency (PFFD) is a developmental defect of acetabulum and proximal femur. Prenatal diagnosis of this condition is increasing with widespread use of ultrasonography. We report a case of unilateral PFFD with absent fibula. Clinical findings, diagnosis and management of this rare skeletal dysplasia are discussed. [Med-Science 2014; 3(4.000): 1708-12] |
