CAUDAL REGRESSION SYNDROME: Clinical case
Azerbaijan Journal of Perinatology and Pediatrics

Abstract

Caudal regression syndrome is a rare sporadic disease characterized by lesions of the terminal segments of the spine and congenital anomalies of the lower extremities, gastrointestinal tract, and genitourinary system. We observed a 37-day-old patient with caudal regression syndrome. The article describes this clinical phenomenon. This event, which is characterized by caudal regression syndrome, was presented to draw attention to prenatal diagnosis.
