After receiving symptomatic treatment, she fully recovered. Prenatal ultrasound revealed that the placenta was diffusely distributed with punctate echogenic foci, hepatomegaly, and the volume of bilateral lungs decreased significantly, with enhanced echo. In addition, we found that the surface of the fetal brain demonstrated widened gyri with a flattened surface. The prenatal MRI confirme
