Abstract
The association of colonic atresia with craniofacial anomalies has been well described and probably represents a malformative event that occurs in the early embryonal period. We present a case of an infant with colonic atresia and a frontal encephalocele and believe this to be a newly reported association. We review possible pathogenic mechanisms.
