The detailed examination of the infant showed wide-open bulging anterior fontanel, all cranial sutures wide opened, small occipital meningocele (Figure 1), low-set ears, downward slanted eyes, short neck, wide-spaced nipples, cleft palate, anteverted nostrils, bilateral microtia, bilateral absence of thumbs, shortening of both upper limbs with aplasia of both radial deviation and medial deviation of the hands, and single umbilical artery (Figure 2).

A radiograph of the infant suggestive of absence of right radius bone. Notes: The left upper limb was rotated and hence the absence of radius could not be seen. In addition, low-volume lung in the index case with five intercostal spaces and fracture of shaft of the femur were noted.
