Prune belly syndrome (PBS) is a rare congenital anomaly of uncertain etiology. Many associations of PBS with other malformations were previously reported, but only few cases of the association with VACTERL have been described. We report a rare case of a Moroccan new born with PBS and complete VACTERL association. The cause of this association is still unknown, but a common etiology is possible, especially when for the two syndromes, a defect in mesodermal differentiation, in early first trimester, has been suggested.
梅干腹综合征(PBS)是一种病因不明的罕见先天性异常。此前曾报道过许多PBS与其他畸形的关联,但仅有少数与VACTERL关联的病例被描述。我们报告了一例罕见的患有PBS并伴有完全性VACTERL关联的摩洛哥新生儿病例。这种关联的原因仍然未知,但可能存在共同的病因,特别是当有人提出对于这两种综合征而言,在孕早期中胚层分化存在缺陷时。
