Abstract:
Dandy-Walker syndrome is a rare congenital central nervous system malformation. Dandy-Walker variant is characterised by cerebellar vermian hypoplasia, cystic fourth ventricular dilatation, and normal posterior fossa volume. Various prenatal tests such as ultrasound, fetal magnetic resonance imaging, and amniocentesis can help diagnose Dandy-Walker syndrome. Here, we report a case of the Dandy-Walker variant with meningitis in a neonate admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit due to multiple petechiae on the anterior abdominal wall, accompanied by peripheral cyanosis at the time of birth. Although maximum cases are diagnosed prenatally, some cases might be missed due to inadequate antenatal examination. Magnetic imaging resonance of the brain is best for the diagnosis of Dandy-Walker syndrome postnatally.

摘要:
Dandy-Walker综合征是一种罕见的先天性中枢神经系统畸形。Dandy-Walker变体的特征是小脑Vermian发育不全,囊性第四心室扩张,和正常的后窝体积。各种产前检查,如超声波,胎儿磁共振成像,羊膜穿刺术可以帮助诊断Dandy-Walker综合征.这里,我们报告了一例Dandy-Walker变异型脑膜炎的病例,该病例是由于前腹壁上的多个瘀点而进入新生儿重症监护病房的新生儿,在出生时伴有周围紫癜。尽管大多数病例都是产前诊断的,有些病例可能因产前检查不足而漏诊。大脑磁共振成像最适合产后诊断Dandy-Walker综合征。
