ABSTRACT | |
Meckel Gruber syndrome (MGS) is a rare autosomal recessive lethal disorder involving multiple systems. The classical triad includes occipital encephalocele, polycystic kidneys and post-axial polydactyly. We report a rare case of MGS which was diagnosed by antenatal ultrasound examination and confirmed at neonatal autopsy.
