Abstract
We report on a newborn black male twin with a distinctive circumferential abdominal skin defect who was identified through the Active Malformation Surveillance Program at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. There were no other malformations, and amniotic disruption was not present. Although it cannot be proven, we believe that this skin defect may have been caused by in utero encirclement of the abdomen by an umbilical cord.
