Abstract:
Complete trisomy 9 is a rare chromosomal aneuploidy in live born infants. The majority of cases of trisomy 9 end in spontaneous abortion in the first trimester. Clinical finding of co-mplete trisomy 9 demonstrate multiple organ abnormalities in the craniofacial, cardiovascular, skeletal, genitouronary systems. We report a fetus with Dandy Walker syndrome which was diagnosed prenatally and was subsequently found to have a complete trisomy 9.
