Foetal autopsy: Case series based review

Abstract

The discrepancies in the prenatal diagnostic techniques for anomalies and foetal outcome has necessitated foetal autopsy. There are certain pathological conditions which may go undetected in prenatal ultrasound or which may require further exploration which is feasible only with a meticulous autopsy. It helps review antenatal clinical care and provides a learning opportunity from unfortunate events which can furnish valuable feedback for the grieving parents. © 2022
