Abstract
We report on an infant boy with facial anomalies, hypoplasia of corpus callosum, cerebral atrophy, cleft of lower sternum, absence of palpab le medial abdominal muscles, omphalocele, hypospadias, and other anoma lies. This combination of congenital anomalies seems not to have been described before. A clear distinction from other syndromes and associa tions with midline defects seems possible, and thus a specific entity may be postulated. (C) 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
