ABSTRACT

The Meckel Gruber syndrome is a lethal, rare and autosomal disorder. It is characterized by multiple malformations, among these the triad of occipital encephalocoele, large polycystic kidneys and post-axial polydactyly. A case with multiple malformations, including the less frequent as omphalocele, hypospadias and cleft lip is presented.
