ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

MURCS association is a rare developmental disorder that affects females. The acronym MURCS stands for Mullerian, Renal, Cervicothoracic Somite abnormalities. It appears to occur randomly [sporadic] with a frequency of 1 in 50.000 females. In this paper, we present a two-year-old girl with typical features of this syndrome in association with right deviation of anorectal canal, subglottic stenosis and unilateral oblique inguinal hernia
