Abdominal distension in Kaufman‐McKusick syndrome Journal Articles

abstract

• AbstractA female infant with Kaufman‐McKusick syndrome redeveloped respiratory distress and abdominal distention at 5 weeks of age. Ultrasonography demonstrated recurrence of peritoneal cysts and hydrometrocolpos. It is postulated that refluxing vaginal secretions may contribute to the abdominal distention seen in many infants with Kaufman‐McKusick syndrome.
