Abstract
McKusick-Kaufman syndrome (MKKS) is an autosomal recessive inherited genetic disorder characterized by postaxial polydactyl, congenital heart disease, and genital malformations. McKusick-Kaufman syndrome should be considered in the differential diagnosis of fetal abdominal masses. Detailed prenatal malformation screening is becoming important when a fetal abdominal cystic mass is been detected. Here, we report a case of MKKS in two female newborn presenting with abdominal masses.
