Abstract
Prenatal diagnosis of the vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation. Congenital malformation
develops during weeks 6-11 of fetal development as a persistent embryonic prosencephalic
vein of Markowski. The incidence of this malformation is estimated to be high. The true
incidence is unknown but estimated to be 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 25,000 births. malformation
accounts for 30% of pediatric congenital vascular malformations and about 1% of all pediatric
congenital anomalies. Infants often die of high-output congestive heart failure [1,2]. The
presenting case report’s main aim is to illustrate the disease with ultrasound performed
during pregnancy and Magnetic resonance characteristics, postnatal evaluation, parenteral
counseling, and their decision for further treatment in the neighboring country [3]. It should
be stressed that the fetus has mosaicism of Turner Syndrome, two lines, normal and unusual
abnormal form. The pregnancy was 34 gestational weeks with intrauterine growth restriction.
The limitation in the precision of prenatal diagnosis at primary care obstetricians and the use
of additional diagnostics tools for improving the diagnosis can lead to unwanted events of
pregnancy, like intrauterine fetal demise. This does not happen in this case
