Meckel-Gruber Syndrome: A Case Who Lived for 5 Months.

Abstract:

:The Meckel-Gruber syndrome is a rare, congenital, and lethal malformation characterized by typical manifestations such as encephalocele, polycystic kidneys, and polydactyly. Herein, we present a case of a patient with the typical triad as well as facial, ocular, liver, and genital abnormalities who lived for almost 5 months.
