Muscular dysplasia

Congenital abdominal wall muscular dysplasia refers to an abnormal development of the anterior abdominal wall muscles. As early as 1839, Frolicll has reported that the most prominent feature of the appearance of the disease is the skin with extremely wrinkled skin. Patients with the disease often have congenital malformations of the urogenital system. In 1895, Parker began to call abdominal muscle dysplasia, cryptorchidism, and congenital giant bladder "triple deformities". When the abdomen wall muscles are absent or stunted, the abdominal wall is loose, and the skin forms wrinkled skin. It is called plum dry belly. Osler (1901) combined the malformations of bladder dilation and hypertrophy, hydronephrosis, and ureteral dilatation of the testicles, and named it Prune-Belly syndrome (PBS). Some people have also called this disease Eagle-Barrett syndrome Symptoms, or lack of comprehensive abdominal wall, kettle belly syndrome, etc.
