We performed vesicocentesis in 2 fetuses with MMIHS and performed vesicoamniotic shunting in 1 of them. The sonographic findings after these procedures were compared with those before puncture. <jats:bold><jats:italic>Results.<\/jats:italic><\/jats:bold> In both cases, ultrasound examination showed a massively enlarged fetal bladder and bilateral hydroureteronephrosis with a normal amount of amniotic fluid. Fetal urinary sodium and chloride concentrations were within normal limits in both cases; this suggested normal fetal renal function. Generally, it is difficult to detect the dilated fetal bowel in MMIHS, probably because of the disturbance caused by a large bladder. In our cases, however, the ultrasound examination clearly showed fetal bowel dilatation after these procedures; this made the antenatal diagnosis of MMIHS more definite. <jats:bold><jats:italic>Conclusions.<\/jats:italic><\/jats:bold> The sonographic features after vesicocentesis may be helpful in confirming the antenatal diagnosis of MMIHS.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7863\/jum.2006.25.6.765","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,9]],"date-time":"2017-01-09T15:57:31Z","timestamp":1483977451000},"page":"765-769","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Megacystis\u2010Microcolon\u2010Intestinal Hypoperistalsis Syndrome"],"prefix":"10.7863","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Nobuhiro","family":"Hidaka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuya","family":"Kawamata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshihide","family":"Chiba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.126.5.957"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7863\/jum.1991.10.10.599"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-2003-40610"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/jmf.16.2.140.141"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0223(200009)20:9<697::AID-PD891>3.0.CO;2-O"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_1","first-page":"774iv","volume":"55","year":"2000","journal-title":"Urology"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1097-0096(199805)26:4<217::AID-JCU8>3.0.CO;2-G"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016349209006237"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jcu.1870120915"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9378(82)90255-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_1","first-page":"225","volume":"3","year":"1993","journal-title":"J Matern Fetal Invest"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0272-6386(87)80020-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_14_1","first-page":"453","volume":"61","year":"2004","journal-title":"Anales Pediatrica"}],"container-title":["Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.7863%2Fjum.2006.25.6.765","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.7863\/jum.2006.25.6.765","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,15]],"date-time":"2023-11-15T18:32:32Z","timestamp":1700073152000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.7863\/jum.2006.25.6.765"}},"subtitle":["In Utero Sonographic Appearance and the Contribution of Vesicocentesis in Antenatal Diagnosis"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,6]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2006,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.7863\/jum.2006.25.6.765"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.7863\/jum.2006.25.6.765","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0278-4297","1550-9613"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0278-4297","type":"print"},{"value":"1550-9613","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,6]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2006-01-02","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2006-01-26","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2006-06-01","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
