The patient in question was referred by a lady health worker to the tertiary care hospital for workup at 7 month of gestation .The patient reported late she was clinically assed a multidisciplinary approach was taken. Radiologically the fetus had deranged Doppler umbilical artery and severe oligohydoamionos. Suspicion of Limb anomalies was also given.
