Abstract
The article describes a case of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AGC) in a month-old female child. Upon presentation, the patient had a discrete, non-discharging erythematous, non-itching, papular skin rash and her right upper limb showed marked hypertonia with fixed flexion deformity of the hand at the wrist. X-ray imaging indicated united fracture mid-shaft of her left humerus as well as hip-hip disproportion and joint asymmetry.
