Abstract
A 23 week pregnant woman with a history of a child with facial and limb malformations underwent a fetal ultrasound revealing similar abnormalities in the current fetus. Genetic testing confirmed a new IRF6 gene mutation consistent with popliteal pterygium syndrome type 1. This case highlights the potential for recurrence and the role of genetic testing in prenatal diagnosis.
