This case study highlights Caffey's syndrome with antenatal onset, diagnosed via uterine X-ray due to hydramnios. Ultrasonography revealed fetal anomalies, suggesting potential familial links in this rare condition.

Area of Science:

Pediatric Radiology
Medical Genetics
Prenatal Diagnosis

Background:

Caffey's syndrome, a rare disorder characterized by infantile cortical hyperostosis and fever, typically presents postnatally.
Antenatal diagnosis of Caffey's syndrome remains infrequent, posing challenges for early intervention.
Understanding the genetic basis and prenatal manifestations is crucial for improved management.

Observation:

A unique case of Caffey's syndrome with antenatal onset is presented.
Diagnosis was established through uterine X-ray, prompted by the presence of hydramnios.
Fetal anomalies associated with the syndrome were identified using ultrasonography.

Findings:

The presented case underscores the possibility of Caffey's syndrome manifesting before birth.

Literature review indicates a moderate incidence of familial cases among antenatal Caffey's syndrome reports.

Early detection through advanced imaging techniques is feasible.

Implications:

This case expands the known spectrum of Caffey's syndrome presentation.
Highlights the importance of considering rare genetic disorders in cases of unexplained fetal anomalies and hydramnios.
Suggests a need for further research into the genetic factors and prenatal screening protocols for Caffey's syndrome.
