Abstract
-
We have recently experienced a case of prune-belly syndrome, in 119/12-year-old male child with congenital defects of abdominal muscles, cryptorchidism, hydronephrosis, megacystis and spina bifida. Diagnosis was confirmed by EMG, IVP, retrograde cystogram, radiorenogram & renal scanning, and roentgenologic examinations. The patient in this report may be one of the most long-term survival case reported in korean literature.
