Abstract
Studies have revealed an association of neural disfigurement with
trisomy 18. Hereby, we report a rare coalition of Trisomy 18 and Arnold
Chiari malformation along with myelomeningocele in a premature neonate.
Despite managing hydrocephalus, the patient' condition deteriorated over
time due to underlying cardiothoracic defects.
