    Author: Welling P, Pfeiffer RA, Kosenow W, Bliesener JA, Jones KV, Haarmeyer A.
    Journal: Z Kinderheilkd; 1975; 118(4):315-35. PubMed ID: 124115.
    Abstract:
    5 Male children exhibiting the typical features of the Prune-Belly syndrome (malformations of the urogenital tract, aplasia of abdominal muscles) are described. Two of these are deaf. This syndrome has also been observed in a few females. Final interpretation of the cause and pathogenesis cannot yet be given. In two siblings with defects of the abdominal muscles an contractures of the joints, but without renal anomalies, a new and hitherto undescribed hereditary syndrome seems to be present.
