Gounain FZ, Malidé A, Mamouni N, Errarhay S, Bouchikhi C, Abdelaziz B. Diabetes and pregnancy with caudal dysgenesis syndrome: A rare congenital malformation about a case and review of the literature. Edorium J Gynecol Obstet 2020;6:100024G06FG2020.ABSTRACT
Maternal diabetes is associated with an increased risk of congenital anomalies, and congenital malformations are the leading cause of infant mortality in the first year. Caudal dysgenesis (CD) has the strongest association with diabetes, occurring up to 200 times more frequently in infants of diabetic mothers than in other infants. Fetal death can be a very emotional event, which can make the search for determining an etiology difficult. Women with diabetes can have complicated pregnancies through a variety of congenital abnormalities, with heart abnormalities being the most common. We report a case of a 34-year-old diabetic type 2 patient plus term pregnancy admitted to the delivery room with intrauterine fetal death and discovery of CD syndrome. In this case report, we describe the characteristics of this rare congenital malformations related to type 2 diabetes and fetal prognosis.
