A term female firstborn infant had unexplained nonimmune fetal hydrops and recurrent left chylothorax at 4 weeks of age. A few months before conception, her mother had had acute dystrophic nail changes and is being treated for recurrent sinusitis, bronchiectasis, and a deficiency of serum IgG2. We suggest that they both suffer from a dominantly inherited congenital lymphedema syndrome known as `yellow nail dystrophy.' Prenatal manifestation of this disorder has not been reported previously. The child's anthropometric and neurological development was normal at 1 year of age, whereas mild ankle edema and marbling of the skin of the limbs were salient clinical findings. Inherited lymphedema leading to nonimmune fetal hydrops also has been recognized in chromosomal disorders, Noonan's syndrome, multiple pterygium syndrome, pulmonary lymphangiectasis, and mixed-vessel lymphatic dysfunction. Indicators of parental lymphedema are not on record in those instances.

Objective: Optimal treatment of fetal intrapericardial teratoma is controversial, especially in regard to fetal intervention. Given the rarity of the disease case reports can assist in decision making. Case Report: We report on a neonate with a giant intrapericardial teratoma detected in utero, almost filling the entire thorax. Delivery was planned per cesarean section with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) stand-by. As a surprise the child adopted very well after birth, requiring only continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). The tumor was resected on the next day without injuring cardiac structures. The child was and discharged on day 10 post-surgery. Conclusion: Our case supports the assumption that even in very large tumors the postnatal course can be benign, if there is no fetal hydrops.

AbstractSitus ambiguous comprises of 3% of congenital heart defects and is present in at least 1 in 10,000 live births. Most cases diagnosed prenatally are associated with complex cardiac defects which can be detected by ultrasonography. This is a case report of a fetus presenting with hydrops, which was detected to have situs ambiguous, a complex cardiac defect and multiple laterality defects on autopsy.
