Cytogenic abnormalities affect 1 in every 200 children; they are associated with multiple congenital abnormalities and with a high perinatal mortality rate. The long-term prognosis is usually poor.

Using 3D ultrasound proved to be invaluable in helping the parents to better understand and visualize the defects.
