case_images: Fetal cerebral magnetic resonance imaging at 31 gestational weeks exhibited bilateral basal ganglia, thalami, posterior brain stem, and corticospinal tract injuries (Figure 1, images 1-3). Frontal periventricular cysts revealed white matter injuries and a hyposignal of the posterior limb of the internal capsule was also observed (Figure 1, images 2 and 3). Postnatal brain magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the antenatal lesions (Figure 1).
