Diplopodia, a rare congenital condition causing a duplicated foot, involves extra bones and digits. This case report details a newborn with diplopodia and imperforate anus, highlighting a rare congenital anomaly.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Genetics
  • Developmental Biology
  • Orthopedics

Background:

  • Diplopodia, or duplicated foot, is an extremely rare congenital anomaly characterized by the presence of supernumerary metatarsal and tarsal bones alongside extra digits.
  • It is distinct from polydactyly due to the involvement of underlying bone structures.

Observation:

  • This report details a rare case of diplopodia in a newborn male.
  • The anomaly affected the left lower extremity, presenting as a duplicated foot.
  • The infant also had an imperforate anus, noted without any history of intrauterine teratogen exposure.

Findings:

  • The case confirms the existence of diplopodia as a distinct congenital malformation.
  • The co-occurrence of diplopodia and imperforate anus in a neonate without teratogen exposure is a significant clinical observation.

Implications:

  • This case contributes to the limited literature on diplopodia, aiding in understanding its phenotypic variability.
  • Further research into the genetic and developmental pathways underlying diplopodia and associated anomalies is warranted.
  • Improved diagnostic and management strategies for rare congenital limb malformations may benefit from such case reports.
