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. A consultant led obstetrical team decided on not to proceed with caesarean section but to opt for vaginal delivery. The baby was delivered breech and was anomalous and expired soon after birth.
