Carmi Syndrome Associated with Gastric Perforation

Abstract

Congenital pyloric atresia with epidermolysis bullosa known as Carmi syndrome is a rare condition and is associated with a high mortality rate.  Carmi syndrome complicated by gastric perforation is extremely morbid and unusual, with a fatal outcome. Here, we report a case of Carmi syndrome in a neonate who presented with an uncommon complication of gastric perforation.
