Objective:To summarize the key prenatal ultrasound diagnosis features of Apert syndrome, analyze the causes of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis, and propose corresponding preventive strategies.Methods:A retrospective analysis was made on the medical records and prenatal ultrasound images of 15 fetuses (including 14 cases referred from other hospitals) who underwent prenatal ultrasound examination in Guangdong Women and Children Hospital from August 2014 to May 2022 and were eventually clinically confirmed as Apert syndrome by induction or after birth. By conducting a comparative analysis, particularly focusing on the initial and final diagnoses of referral cases, the key ultrasound diagnostic points of Apert syndrome and the causes for missed and misdiagnosis were summarized.Results:①Diagnostic accuracy: Among the 15 fetuses, 11 cases (73.3%) were correctly diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound and 4 cases (26.7%) were missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. For the 14 referral cases, only 2 cases (14.3%) were correctly identified in the initial diagnosis at the referring hospital (14.3%), and 12 cases (85.7%) were missed missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. ②Detection rate of ultrasound signs: In the 15 fetuses with Apert syndrome, the detection rate of " cloverleaf" skull was 13.3% (2/15), premature coronal suture was 66.7% (10/15), the " brain shadowing sign" and flat occiput were both 93.3% (14/15), prominent forehead, hypertelorism and bilateral syndactyly of hands were all 100% (15/15), and bilateral syndactyly of feet was 73.3% (11/15). ③Analysis of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis: Among the 4 cases of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis in our hospital, premature closure of coronal suture, " brain shadowing sign", flat occiput and hypertelorism were all not recognized. Among these, 3 cases also missed the prominent forehead, bilateral syndactyly of hands and feet. Additionally, 1 case of bilateral syndactyly of hands was misdiagnosed as partial absence of metacarpals and phalangess.Conclusions:In the prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of fetal Apert syndrome, the symmetric syndactyly of both hands serves as an extremely important diagnostic clue. The " cloverleaf" skull is not common. The premature closure of coronal suture as a direct diagnostic sign with a high detection rate, highlighting its significance in the diagnostic of Apert syndrome. Furthermore, the high detection rates of characteristic ultrasound features such as prominent forehead, flat occiput, " brain shadowing sign" and hypertelorism could help to improve the accuracy of prenatal ultrasound diagnosis for Apert syndrome and effectively reduce missed and misdiagnosis.
