  "abstract": "Congenital chloride diarrhea (CCD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder linked to a dysfunction of the intestinal ion transporter. Its prenatal diagnosis relies on the combination of polyhydramnios and dilated fetal intestinal loops on ultrasound. We report the case of a 26-year-old woman, gravida 3, para 1, admitted at 26 weeks of gestation for threatened preterm labor due to acute polyhydramnios. Conservative management allowed the pregnancy to continue until 34 weeks of gestation, at which point a cesarean section was performed due to acute fetal distress. The newborn presented with watery diarrhea from birth. Initial intravenous rehydration with normal saline, combined with appropriate fluid and electrolyte supplementation, corrected the dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and metabolic alkalosis, leading to a favorable clinical outcome.",
