We describe two siblings with the combination of central nervous system malformations, renal dysplasia and hepatic ductal plate malformation. Based on the occurrence of a cerebellar Dandy-Walker malformation (variant), the diagnosis of Goldston syndrome was proposed in the first case. The second sibling however, showed a typical Meckel syndrome with occipital encephalocele. Both cases had a cranium bifidum with two defects in the squamous part of the occipital bone. This observation confirms that Goldston syndrome is not a distinct entity but merely a variant of Meckel syndrome, and that a cerebellar Dandy-Walker malformation can be a component of Meckel syndrome.
我们描述了两名患有中枢神经系统畸形、肾发育不全和肝导管板畸形的兄弟姐妹。基于小脑Dandy-Walker畸形（变异型）的出现，首例病例被诊断为戈德斯顿综合征。然而，第二名兄弟姐妹表现出典型的梅克尔综合征并伴有枕部脑膨出。两例均有颅骨裂，枕骨鳞状部有两处缺损。这一观察结果证实，戈德斯顿综合征并非一个独特的实体，而仅仅是梅克尔综合征的一种变异型，并且小脑Dandy-Walker畸形可以是梅克尔综合征的一个组成部分。
