Extractions: Causes, incidence, and risk factors: The underlying causes of prune belly syndrome are unknown. There is blockage to the flow of urine from the kidney to the outside of the body during fetal life. For example, dilatation of the urinary tract may develop as a result of urethral obstruction in the womb. The incidence is approximately 1 in 30,000 to 40,000 births. Boys are almost solely affected. Expectant mothers carrying affected infants may develop varying degrees of oligohydramnios (insufficient amniotic fluid ) that predisposes the infant to lung problems (see Potter syndrome ). The newborn infant has a wrinkled abdomen (it looks like a prune). This appearance results from swelling with fluid in the womb then loss of that fluid after birth leading to wrinkles of excess skin. The appearance is accentuated by the lack of adequate abdominal musculature. Genital abnormalities may be prominent as undescended testes . Approximately one third of the infants are either stillborn or die within the first few weeks of life from severe lung, kidney, or combined problems.

Extractions: What is prune belly syndrome? Prune belly syndrome is also known as triad syndrome or Eagle-Barrett syndrome. It is characterized by a triad of abnormalities that include the following: Because of the substantial involvement of the urinary tract, children with prune belly syndrome are usually unable to completely empty their bladders and have serious bladder, ureter, and kidney impairment. A child with prune belly syndrome may also have other birth defects. Most commonly, these defects involve the skeletal system, intestines, and heart. Girls may have defects in their external genitalia, as well. Some infants who have prune belly syndrome may be stillborn or die within a few months of birth.

Extractions: Prune Belly Syndrome, also known as Eagle-Barrett Syndrome, effects 1 in 40,000 live births. Because it is so rare and uncommon, the media has been slow to respond to it. 20% of patients are stillborn, 30% die of renal failure or urosepsis within the first two years of life, and the remaining 50% have varying degrees of urinary pathology. Frank Walker (born with Prune Belly Syndrome) has put together a 3-day benefit to raise money for greater awareness of this condition. The first will take place on Feb 20th at Munchaba Lounge (Levittown), the second on Feb 21st at Caps on the River (Seaford), and the final day of the benefit will be Sunday Feb 22nd at the Village Pub South (Amityville).

Extractions: Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Winston-Salem, North Carolina27157 Prune Belly Syndrome, also known as Eagle-Barrett syndrome, is awell known triad of abdominal muscle deficiency or hypoplasia, urinarytract anomalies, and bilateral cryptorchidism. Tracheo-esophagealfistula is a sporadically occurring defect estimated to occur in 1 out4425 live births. Only one case of Prune Belly Syndrome, tracheo-esophagealfistula associated with VATER syndrome, and urethral atresia occurringin the same individual has been reported. We present a uniquecase involving a 33 week fetus with bladder distention and bilateral hydroureteronephrosisdiagnosed in utero who postnatally was diagnosed with Prune Belly Syndrome,tracheo-esophageal fistula, and urethral atresia. CASE REPORT After the placement of a 8 Fr. percutaneous suprapubic tube, a cystogramwas performed which demonstrated a large bladder with severe trabeculation.After instillation of 200 milliliters of cystograffin under gravity, bilateralgrade 5 ureteral reflux was evident by the presence of contrast in therenal pelvis bilaterally On day four of life, the patient was noted to have a creatinine of 1.0mg/dl. Urine output during this time was between 1.5-3 ml/kg/hr. Repeatabdominal ultrasonography demonstrated worsening hydroureteronephrosis.The patient was taken to the operating room for an exploratory laparotomyand urinary diversion. The bladder was noted to have two large

THIS IS A STUDENT REPORT AND MAY CONTAIN INACCURACIES GREG HAMPIKIAN greghampikian@mail.clayton.edu. I. Prune Belly Syndrome, alsoknown as eaglebarrett syndrome, by Jill Todd. II. Chromosomal Location. http://a-s.clayton.edu/hampikian/1901H/REPORTS1999/PruneBelly1901h-01.htm
Extractions: THIS IS A STUDENT REPORT AND MAY CONTAIN INACCURACIES. IF YOU WISH TO QUOTE FROM IT YOU MUST GET THE WRITTEN PERMISSION OF DR. GREG HAMPIKIAN greghampikian@mail.clayton.edu I. Prune Belly Syndrome, also known as Eagle-Barrett Syndrome, by Jill Todd II. Chromosomal Location Prune Belly mimics an X-linked disease. The exact cause of Prune Belly Syndrome is not known; although, urinary obstruction (a common symptom), has been associated with the Ring X chromosome which lacks the XIST locus. The XIST is the inactivation center. Failure for the Ring X chromosome to become inactive causes many abnormalities, such as urinary obstruction (Wiley, 1). III. Type of inheritance Prune Belly Syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease; however, it mimics X-linked inheritance. This disease is seen in families only in sons. The disease is thought to be caused by a primary defect in mesoderm development (Dept of Radiology, 1). Incidence Approximately 1/40,000 live births are born with Prune Belly Syndrome. 20% are still born or die before birth; 50% die in the first two years of life (DAlessandro, 1). The disease is predominately in males. Symptoms Abdomen appears as a "potbelly" (Pedbase, 2)
Extractions: About as complex as it getsthats how pediatric urologist Andrew Freedman, M.D., director of pediatric urology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centers Endourology Institute, describes the surgery he performed this summer on then 17- month-old Jalen Brown, born with Prune Belly Syndrome. That surgery required reconstructing the toddlers urinary system in a nearly 10-hour procedure. Prune Belly Syndrome, also known as Eagle-Barrett Syndrome, is a very rare occurrence: just one in 80,000 births. An estimated 99 percent of those affected are boys. The cause is still unknown, though some theories suggest urinary tract obstructions and resulting distention or developmental defects in utero. These trademark characteristics are typically discovered either prenatally via ultrasound or at birth. Associated medical problemsprimarily related to renal functioncan be life-threatening. We werent sure he was going to make it, says Dr. Freedman, citing concerns at birth. For Jalenand most others with the syndromesurvival depends on medical intervention.
