Abstract
We present a case of a large frontal lesion, suspected on antenatal ultrasound to be a cephalocele. The cardiac anatomy was abnormal and fetal blood sampling showed a 45,X chromosome constitution. Postmortem examination proved this to be a lymphangioma and confirmed the presence of a cardiac defect. We suggest that this lymphangioma represents an unusual manifestation of monosomy X and discuss the importance of doing chromosome analysis in the presence of such a lesion which is of similar appearance as a cephalocele.
