First case report of a unique combination of congenital limb and skeletal anomalies mimicking VACTERL and Gollop-Wolfgang syndromes

This case underscores the importance of early diagnosis, individualized surgical planning, and comprehensive rehabilitation in managing complex congenital disorders. Furthermore, it highlights the need for expanded genetic and phenotypic research to classify novel syndromes and optimize therapeutic strategies, especially in populations with high consanguinity rates and environmental risk exposures.

Abstract

This case underscores the importance of early diagnosis, individualized surgical planning, and comprehensive rehabilitation in managing complex congenital disorders. Furthermore, it highlights the need for expanded genetic and phenotypic research to classify novel syndromes and optimize therapeutic strategies, especially in populations with high consanguinity rates and environmental risk exposures.
