Abstract

We report three cases of fetal malformations diagnosed by MRI in Abidjan. Patients were referred for suspicion of fetal malformations on ultrasound. They were young (average age of 29 years), primipares, without any particular antecedent. We used a 1.5 T MRI, T2 coronal, T2 axial, BTFE coronal, BTFE sagittal, BTFE axial, diffusion and ADC cartography were realised. MRI diagnosed an arachnoid cyst, posterior fossa kystique tumor, hydranencephaly. MRI is an excellent diagnostic tool for fetal malformations. Its use should be routine in management of fetal malformations.
