Abstract
A Newborn infant with bilateral aplasia of kidneys and ureters and a rudimentary bladder is reported. Other manifestations of Potter's syndrome (oligohydramnios, lung hypoplasia and an abnormal face) were missing as were other congenital malformations. Deviations from the full picture of Potter's syndrome seem to be rare. This case, however, shows that bilateral renal aplasia cannot be excluded as a cause of anuria in a newborn infant, even if all other manifestations of Potter's syndrome are missing.Keywords
