Abstract

A detailed account is given of a 19-month-old female infant with partial duplication of the left lower limb and aplasia of the ipsilateral kidney, plus other congenital malformations. Although the etiology is unknown, we believe this constellation of findings, which has been reported previously, represents a new congenital malformation syndrome.
