Abstract
A 2-year-old boy with typical features of the acrocallosal syndrome is presented. His parents are first degree cousins and their first pregnancy resulted in spontaneous abortion whereas the offspring of their second pregnancy was an anencephalic baby with bilateral postaxial polydactyly of the hands. The possibility of including anencephaly in the spectrum of the CNS malformations of the acrocallosal syndrome is suggested.Keywords
