Abstract Sirenomelia (Mermaid Syndrome) is a rare lethal multi-systemic birth malformation in which the two lower limbs are replaced with a rotated single midline tail-like limb. We are presenting a case of Sirenomelia(Mermaid Syndrome), which is an extreme example of Caudal Regression Syndrome. It invariably presents with lower limb fusion, sacral and pelvic bony anomalies, absent external genitalia, imperforate anus, and renal agenesis or dysgenesis.
