"Apple-peel" intestinal atresia, ocular anomalies, and microcephaly syndrome: brain magnetic resonance imaging study.
We report on a male child with "apple-peel" atresia associated with microcephaly and ocular anomalies. To date, no magnetic resonance imagings have been published. We report on the fourth reported case with this phenotype, but the first to be studied by brain magnetic resonance imaging.
