Prune Belly Syndrome with Ultrasound Demonstration of Reduction of Megacystis in Utero

The Prune Belly Syndrome is a congenital disorder in which a major urinary tract malformation, usually obstructive, is associated with abdominal wall muscle deficiency. Males are more often affected and it has been suggested that urethral obstruction is the primary disorder, the other features being secondary (Pagon et al, 1979).
