Unilateral agenesis of the diaphragm with bilateral renal agenesis is an extremely
rare lethal developmental anomaly. A detailed evaluation of fetal organs during nuchal
translucency scan is required to diagnose this type of developmental anomaly. Detecting
lethal developmental abnormality at an early gestational period (11–14 weeks) will
be invaluable in facilitating the decision to terminate the pregnancy. Termination
in the first trimester reduces psychological stress to the parents. We present a rare
case of combined developmental anomaly which has never been reported in the literature.
