| Popis: | An unreported coincidence of malformations has been studied by anatomical dissection in a mature male fetus. Auxiliary, this fetus was examined by computed tomography and the skeletal malformations were three-dimensionally reconstructed. The organs of the thorax as well as of the abdomen showed a visceral inversion. In the lumbar region, a hyperkyphosis was detected in addition to a split-notochord. A hydrocephalus internus with enlarged lateral ventricles and an agenesis of the corpus callosum were apparent. The lower extremities were dystrophic with both showing a talipes equinovarus-deformation. Following the case report, we discuss if this is coincidental or manifestations in consequence of one defect. |
