ABSTRACT
A boy was born with a short sloping forehead, wide metopic suture, persistent metopic fontanelle, telecanthus, ocular hypertelorism, nystagmoid eye movements, bilateral cleft lip and palate, imperforate anus, rectourethral fistula, bifid scrotum and an unusual penis with hypospadias. The neutrophil polymorphs had numerous nuclear projections. The pregnancy was complicated by chronic maternal schizophrenia, severe toxaemia and maternal use of fluphenazine enanthate, dicyclomine hydrochloride, doxylamine succinate, pyridoxine hydrochloride and other drugs. Details of mother's illness, pregnancy and drug usage are presented with the clinical findings and investigations.
