Clin Dysmorphol. 2004 Jan;13(1):57-8. doi: 10.1097/00019605-200401000-00018.

Abstract

We present a case of pentalogy of Cantrell which was diagnosed prenatally on routine ultrasound examination. There were several associated limb defects. We discuss the differential diagnosis and conclude that our case probably had a variant form of this syndrome.
