Popis: The autopsy findings of a newborn with renal tubular dysgenesis, born to first cousins of Moslim Arab descent, are described. Hypocalvaria and hyperflexible joints were noted in addition to the renal lesion. A microdissection study demonstrated marked shortening of all the nephron segments from the glomeruli to the collecting tubules, rather than an isolated abnormality of the proximal convoluted tubules.
