Mirror Syndrome Associated with 18p Deletion Syndrome.

: BACKGROUND: Mirror syndrome is defined as the development of maternal edema in association with fetal hydrops. This rare disease is called mirror syndrome due to the presence of maternal edema that "mirrors" the fetal and placental condition. CASE: We report the first case of mirror syndrome associated with 18p deletion. CONCLUSION: Cytogenetic analysis should be considered in mirror syndrome to identify the underlying cause.
