Meckel syndrome is a rare lethal ciliopathic genetic disorder, characterized by renal cystic dysplasia, central nervous system malformations, polydactyly, hepatic developmental defects, and pulmonary hypoplasia due to oligohydramnios. 34 years old, neither diabetic nor hypertensive, she is gravida III, para I, came for first ultrasound scan with amenorrhea for four months. The ultrasound scan shows single viable fetus, gestational age was 19 weeks + 5 days, with enlarged highly echogenic kidneys.
