Green baby: a consequence of intrauterine exposure to Evan's blue dye.
Evan's blue dye was accidentally injected into the fetus. This caused a bluish discoloration of the skin that gradually changed to a greenish color. The greenish color disappeared after 3 weeks and there were no other sequelae to this iatrogenic complication.
