Abstract

Amelia is the complete absence of a limb. This anomaly can be isolated or as part of multiple congenital anomalies. It is a rare condition and its etiology is mostly unknown. The aim of this study is to present a case with bilateral lower extremity amelia at 24 weeks of gestation in antenatal period.

Özet

Ameli bir ekstremitenin tamamen olmaması anlamına gelir. Bu anomali izole olabileceği gibi multipl konjenital anomalilerin bir parçası olarak da bulunabilir. Ender görülen ve genellikle etyolojisi saptanamayan bir durumdur. Antenatal dönemde 24. gebelik haftasında bilateral alt ekstremite amelisi tespit edilen bir vakanın sunulması amaçlanmıştır.
