Three own cases of diagnosing anomalies of the relative position of the kidneys (horseshoe kidney) are presented. Two cases were diagnosed prenatally at 19+6 and 25+3 weeks of gestation, in one case no prenatal changes were identified, the diagnosis was made postnatally in the month of the child’s life. In all cases, the change was isolated. Thus, the possibility of prenatal diagnosis of a horseshoe kidney in our center was 66.7 %. In all cases the diagnosis of a horseshoe kidney was confirmed postnatally using ultrasound examination, and in one case magnetic resonance imaging of the abdominal organs was additionally performed. Prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of a horseshoe kidney was possible due to the presence of adhesion of the lower poles with the whole mass and abnormal location of the kidneys, or the detection of a characteristic large parenchymal isthmus between the lower poles, located suprapertebrally. In the case of a typical location of the kidneys and the presence of a relatively thin isthmus between the poles, the diagnosis of this anomaly in the prenatal period caused certain difficulties.

A case of prenatal diagnosis of the corpus callosum lipoma at 32–33 weeks of gestation is presented. In a consultative examination, a hyperechoic formation with clear contours was found in the projection of the septum pellucidum, occupying the rostrum, genu, and truncus of corpus callosum, without signs of intratumorally blood flow in the color Doppler mapping mode. The prenatal diagnosis of "callosum lipoma" was established, confirmed after the birth of a child during magnetic resonance imaging.

A case of postnatal ultrasound diagnosis the middle interhemispheric variant of holoprosencephaly in a newborn with Edwards syndrome is presented. The characteristic postnatal ultrasound signs of this variant of holoprosencephaly and signs of magnetic resonance imaging of this pathology according to literary sources are presented.
