Abstract
El Síndrome de Prune Belly en el sexo femenino es poco frecuente, siendo un 3 a 5% del total de casos masculinos; presentamos un caso nacido en el Hospital de La Mujer, Servicio de Neonatología, La Paz - Bolivia, con las características físicas evidentes de la enfermedad, sin que existan graves trastornos del aparto urinario o infecciones del mismo. Creemos que es el primer caso reportado en la literatura nacional que evoluciona con un curso clínico leve y pronóstico favorable dentro de su gravedad.
Prune Belly Syndrome in females is rare, being a 3 to 5% of cases were male, we present a case born in The Women' s Hospital, Service of Neonatology, La Paz - Bolivia, with obvious physical characteristics of the disease, with no serious disorders of the urinary tract or infections away from it. We believe it is the first case reported in the literature that develops an ongoing mild and favorable clinical prognosis in its severity.
