Case Presentation:
A newborn baby girl was born to a 27-year-old female at 38 weeks and 6
days via uncomplicated normal spontaneous vaginal delivery. Pregnancy
was complicated by late entry to prenatal care with a single prenatal
ultrasound without abnormalities, however views were suboptimal and
limited by gestational age and the patient did not return for repeat
imaging. Upon examination of the newborn, we noted truncation of the
second through fourth digits of the left hand with connecting bands
(Figure 1) and right lower extremity talipes equinovarus (Figure 2).
Examination of the placenta revealed a short umbilical cord with
amniotic strands on the fetal side of the placenta ( Figure 3).
