Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency

Meromelia is a rare skeletal abnormality characterized by the partial absence of at least one limb. Several mechanisms have been postulated to explain the etiopathogenesis of the disorder. Most of the cases of meromelia are reported to be sporadic. It can occur either in isolation or with other congenital malformations. VACTERL association, gastroschisis, atrial septal defect, proximal femoral focal deficiency, and fibular hemimelia are the congenital abnormalities reported to be in association with meromelia. However, no other congenital abnormalities in association with meromelia have been recorded to date. We herein present an unusual case of bilateral upper limb meromelia accompanied by unilateral oligodactyly and brachymesophalangy of the foot.

Fibular Hemimelia

A case of prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of fibular hemimelia, type I associated with oligodactyly of the foot at 22 weeks of gestation is presented. Ultrasound examination at 22 weeks of gestation revealed hypoplasia of the left fibula and the foot oligodactyly. After prenatal counseling, the patient opted for termination of pregnancy. During external examination of the abortus asymmetry of the lower extremities due to shortening of the left lower leg and oligodactyly of the left foot were noted, those confirmed prenatal ultrasound data.
