Abstrakt: A new report from the Department of Neurosurgery in Lodz, Poland presents a case of a neonate born with Cantrell syndrome and ectopia cordis, an extremely rare congenital disorder. The study emphasizes the importance of multimodality imaging for diagnosis and planning management. The researchers used three-dimensional computed tomography angiography to confirm complex intracardiac defects in the patient. The study concludes that Cantrell syndrome requires a multidisciplinary approach, from prenatal diagnosis to prompt medical imaging and surgical interventions after birth. The disorder, which includes complete ectopia cordis, is extremely rare and often fatal. [Extracted from the article]
