Prune Belly Syndrome
Eagle-Barrett syndrome, also known as prune belly syndrome, is a rare congenital disorder that affects the abdominal wall and the urinary tract.
How it shows up: It usually features poorly developed abdominal musculature that gives the skin a wrinkled appearance, along with alterations of the urinary system.
Origin: It is present from birth and is related to problems in development during the embryonic stage.
Which specialist treats it? The pediatrician coordinates the comprehensive care of the child, the nephrologist assesses kidney function, and the pediatric surgeon intervenes when surgical correction is required. Since it is a condition detected early, specialized follow-up is essential.
