A kindred with a hereditary caudal malformation syndrome is reported. The hereditary trait, as shown in a pedigree, is probably dominant autosomal, with variable expressivity. The presenting symptoms and signs, and the diagnostic procedures are discussed in some detail from a practical point of view. Attention is also paid to the theoretical aspects of etiology and pathogenesis.
