Abstract:
The Schinzel-Giedion syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive condition with typical facies, skeletal manifestations and congenital hydronephrosis. We report an infant with characteristic findings who had bilateral congenital megacalyces. Congenital megacalyces is believed to be a developmental abnormality, occurs in other malformation syndromes and has not previously been described in the Schinzel-Giedion syndrome.
