Abstract

The authors report a case which demonstrates how an interdisciplinary collaboration between the obstetrician and pediatrician may be activated in the event of a suspected fetal malformation, in this case craniosynostosis, although it is important to recognise the diagnostic limitations of ultrasonography regarding this type of pathology.
