Abstract
AbstractFraser syndrome (FS) involves multiple malformations and has a 25% recurrence risk among siblings. However, these malformations are difficult to detect prenatally, hampering prenatal diagnosis. Here, we describe a fetus with FS diagnosed using ultrasonography. Ultrasonography revealed congenital high airway obstruction syndrome and renal agenesis. Syndactyly of both hands and cryptophthalmos were noted postnatally, and the diagnosis was confirmed by genetic analysis, which showed novel compound heterozygous variants of FREM2.
