Objective: The objective of this study was to report a case of bilateral ulnar longitudinal deficiency with oligodactyly in a male newborn.
Case Description: A full-term male newborn, born following an uncomplicated gestation with no abnormalities detected on prenatal ultrasounds, presented upper limb malformations described as shortening of the left forearm and absence of three digits bilaterally upon neonatal physical examination. Diagnostic investigations including X-rays, abdominal ultrasound, head ultrasound, echocardiogram, and karyotype analysis were conducted, facilitating detailed identification of the malformations and exclusion of other anomalies, thereby suggesting the diagnosis of congenital longitudinal deficiency of the ulna.
