title: Genitourinary tract anomalies in lobster claw syndrome.
abstract: A child with ectrodactyly or lobster claw syndrome and bilateral ureterovesical junction obstruction is described. The embryogenesis of the kidney and the limb buds suggest that a close association exists between these 2 conditions. Therefore, it is important to investigate the urinary tract in all patients with limb deformities.
