Pena-Shokeir syndrome's first case report from Syria

Mohammad Badr Almoshantaf et al. Clin Case Rep. .

Abstract

Pena-Shokeir syndrome is considered to be a fatal congenital condition that is rarely diagnosed in neonates. We present the first-ever reported case of Pena-Shokeir syndrome from Syria. Clinical assessment and early prenatal diagnosis are both needed to give the mother and baby more realistic options.

Keywords: Pena–Shokeir syndrome (PSS); atrial septal defect (ASD); congenital anomalies.
