(B) Ultrasound image depicting ascites within the fetal abdomen, indicated by anechoic fluid spaces. (C-D) The part of the fetal intestine was dilated with a length about 12.3 cm and maximum inner diameter of 2.5 cm. (E) Prenatal MRI scan of the fetal brain showing no significant abnormalities, with normal brain structure and morphology. (F-G) Post-abortion MRI scans of the aborted fetus revealing dilatation of the small bowel, confirming the prenatal ultrasound findings. The images demonstrate the extent and location of the bowel dilation
