Clin Case Rep. 2024 Jun 24;12(7):e9119. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.9119. eCollection 2024 Jul.

Abstract

Polymelia (supernumerary limbs) is an extremely rare congenital condition in humans. Because congenital anorectal malformation is a relatively common complication of polymelia and it may require emergency surgery as in the present case, accompanying malformations must be investigated.

Keywords: Polymalia; anorectal malformation; congenital incomplete duplication of lower extremity; human; unilateral deafness.
