Abstract: OEIS complex is one of the congenital anomalies not compatible with life. It comprises of omphalocele; exstrophy of the cloaca; imperforate anus and spinal defects with incidence of 1: 100; 000 live births. It can be associated with other anomalies of urinary tract; genital tract; skeletal defects variably. Diagnosis can be done prenatally by ultrasonography. We present a case of OEIS complex with other associated congenital anomalies like imperforate anus; absent external genitalia; gonads; appendix with single kidney; meningocele and limb deformity in the form of talipes equinovalgus in a 29 weeks foetus. It was delivered vaginally by a fifth gravida female without any risk factors and all the four siblings are leading normal post-natal life.
