Reem Prince: Marked Unilateral Femoral Shortening Seen at 22 Weeks of Gestation

Reem Prince, Radiology consultant at TechnoScan, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Interesting fetal skeletal anomaly encountered during a routine anomaly scan.

GA: 22+3 weeks

Marked unilateral femoral shortening:

  • Right femur: 20.6 mm
  • Left femur: 34.8 mm

The shortened femur demonstrates preserved mineralization without obvious bowing. No additional skeletal abnormalities or thoracic hypoplasia were identified.

Images attached.

What would be your leading diagnosis?

  • Isolated femoral hypoplasia?
  • Proximal femoral focal deficiency (PFFD)?
  • Other considerations?

I would appreciate hearing colleagues’ thoughts and experience with similar prenatal cases.”
