We herein describe two cases of Meckel-Gruber Syndrome identified in stillborn infants. Both had all three elements of the classical triad, namely, occipital encephalocele, renal cystic dysplasia and post-axial polydactyly. In addition, many of the other well-known accompanying abnormalities were present. Awareness of this entity in this region is important because of its high risk of recurrence in subsequent pregnancies.
