Abstract
We present a case of short rib (polydactyly) syndrome in which the diagnosis was made prenatally by ultrasound examination. The more specific diagnosis of short rib (polydactyly) syndrome type III was made on the basis of findings on radiographs obtained at birth. The sonographic and radiographic features are discussed. The patient had complete situs inversus and hypospadias. The former was reported in one other case of type III and the later has not been previously reported in this entity.Keywords
