ABSTRACT

We report a case of Sirenomelia. The mother began prenatal care in the second trimester. Transabdominal ultrasound was determined anhydramnios, cardiac abnormalities and lumbosacral spine. We obtained a single fetus of 21 weeks' gestation with fused lower extremities from the hip to finish in a stump without the presence of feet. Heart with transposition of the great vessels, among other birth defects. It was classified as symelia, Apodi apus, monopodio sirenoide, siren ectropodia, type VI. It is important to diagnose early, because it is a serious and deadly disorder.
