Abstract
Single umbilical artery (SUA) is a situation when the umbilical cord contains only one umbilical artery instead of the normally occurring two umbilical arteries. There are two conditions in the fetuses or the newborns with a SUA ,ie when they have just a SUA or an isolated SUA (when the SUA is present in the absence of chromosomal and structural abnormalities).Literature review has highlighted that the presence of a SUA is associated with an increased risk of perinatal morbidity and mortality. Neverthless during the most important periods of pregnancy, labor, and delivery there is an high rate of complications especially in the isolated SUA variety. This article reports a case of SUA in a three day old male baby and its significance.
