Limb body‐wall complex in association with sirenomelia sequence

Abstract excerpt

Limb body-wall complex and sirenomelia sequence are uncommon birth defects and their association is extremely rare. Their overlapping manifestations and their concurrence in our patient suggest that they share a common cause and belong to a group of pathologically closely related conditions. Embryonic vascular disruption may be a common pathogenesis in both anomalies.
