ABSTRACT

Introduction: Prune belly syndrome is a rare and complex congenital anomaly and the pseudo prune belly is even rarer and often not diagnosed as such.
Objective: To describe a patient with the characteristics of this syndrome.
Presentation of the case: Male fetus that in the 23rd week of pregnancy it was detected a bilateral pelvic dilatation in the prenatal ultrasound; and it was proposed the termination of pregnancy which was not accepted by the parents. At birth it is observed bilateral cryptorchidism; the renal ultrasound at 34 hours after birth confirmed bilateral severe pelvic dilation, it is indicated prophylaxis with cephalexin, and at four days after birth, the newborn is remitted to the Nephrology consultation. In the consultation it was noticed the absence of scrotal sacs in both testicles and the abdominal ultrasound at 16 days after birth confirmed severe right renal pelvic dilatation and dilated ureter in its upper third with 6 mm of diameter and severe uretero-pielocaliectasy in the left side; it is not visualized the right testicle and the left in the inguinal channel measured 7 × 10 mm. Static scintigraphy showed marked hypocaptation of the radiopharmaceutical by the left kidney and decreased relative renal function, and in the voiding cystourethrogram it was found bladder dilation and vesicoureteral reflux with bilateral ureterohydronephrosis.
Conclusions: The pseudo prune belly syndrome presents complex abnormalities of the urinary tract that are those which establish the prognosis in these cases.
