Title: Congenital Central Nervous System Malformations: A Rare Case of an Encephalocele and Literature Review of Its Associations, Imaging Modalities, Radiological Findings, and Treatments Cord-id: ro14041c Document date: 2021_6_27

Snippet: Congenital central nervous system (CNS) malformations are relatively rare conditions present in fetuses that may result in intrauterine fetal deaths (IUFDs). We report a case of a 42-year-old female who presented at 29 weeks gestation with lack of a fetal heart beat likely due to a congenital malformation resulting in IUFD. This case report and literature review provides a better understanding of the encephalocele as a harbinger for IUFD.
