| مستخلص: | The Prune-Belly syndrome (PBS) is a rare pathology predominating in male infants, classically manifesting with the triad including aplasia of the abdominal wall muscles, dilatation of the urinary tract, and testicular abnormalities. We report and discuss the case of a full-term male newborn, in whom clinical examination at birth revealed abdominal wall muscle hypoplasia, cryptorchidism, urinary tract dilatation and renal failure. The diagnosis was made based on physical assessment, abdominal ultra-sonographic imaging, and blood sampling of urea and creatinine. For such cases, the recommended surgical management usually consists in a sequential surgical intervention including urinary tract reconstruction, abdominoplasty, and orchidopexy. However, these could not be practiced in due time in our patient, who died on the seventh day of life because of kidney failure. The prognosis of infants with Prune-Belly syndrome may be improved by quality antenatal follow-up, to enable the early diagnosis and preparation for prompt surgical intervention.
