(B) Longitudinal view of the neck region and upper thoracic vertebrae showing the disrupted bony structures as well as some disorganized neural tissue. (C) Transverse view. The typical U-shaped vertebrae with tissue protruding is evident, consistent with an open upper spina bifida, which is commonly seen with anencephaly.
