Abstract
A case of megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS) in a male infant followed with serial prenatal sonographic examinations is presented. Upon review of the literature, 26 cases of MMIHS have been previously reported of which only 3 were males. The prenatal sonographic diagnosis of this rare syndrome is discussed along with the clinical, pathologic findings and outcome of all reported cases.
