Abstract:
Megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by a massively enlarged urinary bladder without mechanical outlet obstruction and microcolon, as well as a hypoperistaltic bowel with normal ganglion cell distribution. We report one such case to discuss the findings of antenatal ultrasound and the radiologic and pathologic features of this condition.
