Summary

MURCS association, a rare condition with mullerian duct aplasia, renal aplasia, and cervicothoracic somite dysplasia, presents unusual antenatal findings. These include a cystic umbilical cord, enlarged bladder, and suspected urethral obstruction in female fetuses.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Genetics
  • Developmental Biology
  • Reproductive Medicine

Background:

  • MURCS association is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by mullerian duct aplasia, renal aplasia, and cervicothoracic somite dysplasia.
  • First described in 1979, it represents an unusual constellation of nonrandom findings with a proposed embryologic basis.
  • This condition is typically lethal and presents significant diagnostic challenges.
