Resumen
La anencefalia es la anomalía del sistema nervioso central más frecuentemente diagnosticada en la vida intrauterina. En la bibliografía actual se refiere la posibilidad de un diagnóstico cada vez más precoz mediante ultrasonidos. En este artículo describimos los signos ecográficos más frecuentes de esta secuencia y su diagnóstico prenatal.
