AbstractThrombocytopenia with absent radius (TAR) is a congenital syndrome characterized by severe thrombocytopenia with bilateral absent radii and may be associated with other skeletal abnormalities. We report a case who had bilateral micromelia of upper limb, radially curved forearms and bilateral absent of thumb at birth. A severe thrombocytopenia confirmed the clinical diagnosis of thrombocytopenia with absent radius syndrome in the neonate.
