Nondysraphic intramedullary lipomas of the spinal cord are rare, and there are currently no reports of their observation in utero. Here, we present the sonographic (US) findings in such a case. Four intraspinal hyperechoic masses were observed on US on the dorsal aspect of the fetal spine in a 30‐year‐old woman at 30 weeks' gestation. Findings were consistent with those of prenatal MRI and were confirmed on autopsy after induced abortion. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound 46:278–281, 2018
