Article Abstract

A neonate presented with abdominal distension and decreased urinary output. X-ray revealed dual abdominal fluid condition-ascites with a distended bladder, along with vertebral anomalies. The possibility of urinary ascites and neurogenic bladder was kept, which was further confirmed on evaluation.
