title: Imperforate anus in Feingold syndrome.
abstract: A father and daughter had the characteristic findings of Feingold syndrome including microcephaly, short palpebral fissures, brachydactyly with clinodactyly of fifth fingers, and bilateral syndactyly of second to third and fourth to fifth toes. The infant presented with long-gap esophageal atresia without fistula (type A). Her father, who had short stature and learning disabilities, had congenital imperforate anus with a recto-vesical fistula. This is the first report of distal intestinal atresia in Feingold syndrome.
