We report one clinical case of a 29-year-old, Caucasian woman who is pregnant for the first time. Ultrasound examination showed a singleton fetus with porencephaly. Amniocentesis was done, and the fetal chromosomal analysis revealed a fetus with normal karyotype: 46,XY. After a complex and very difficult genetic counselling the parents opted to terminate the pregnancy. The autopsy confirm the prenatal ultrasound diagnosis.
