Abstract

Alagille's syndrome is an infrequent genetic condition with autosomal inheritance and variable expression. The complete form exhibits 5 clinical signs, chronic intrahepatic cholestasis, characteristic facies, cardiovascular anomalies, posterior embryotoxon, and vertebral defects. If only 3 or 4 of these are present the case is considered as an incomplete form.The association of Alagille's syndrome with radio-ulnar synostosis is extremely rare. There is only one case described in the indexed literature. A case is presented of Alagille's syndrome with bilateral proximal radioulnar synostosis. To the best of our knowledge this is the second reported case of this association.
