[Fetal anophthalmos. Problem of the prenatal diagnosis: a case report]

We report a case of anophthalmia discovered after birth and discuss the need to resolve diagnostic difficulties and determine prognosis. This is an exceptional malformation which is particularly difficult to manage. It often occurs in the context of a complex malformation syndrome. Recent imaging techniques including magnetic resonance imaging help determine the degree of malformation and provide useful information for giving genetic advice to parents.
