Abstract

The paper describes an ultrasound case of congenital diaphragmatic hernia concurrent with duodenal atresia in a fetus at 25 weeks. Fetal chest scanning determined heart displacement to the right, left lung hypoplasia due to the dislocation of the intestine, stomach, and spleen to the chest, as well as dilated duodenum, enlarged stomach, and polyhydramnios. In this term, the fetal stomach was located in the chest and its duodenum was in the abdomen. Reexamination of the fetus at 36 weeks showed a shift of the duodenum to the chest. Surgical treatment of diaphragmatic hernia and duodenal atresia was performed after birth. The diagnosis was intraoperatively verified.
