Adams Oliver syndrome (AOS) is a rare autosomal dominant congenital disorder characterized by absence of skin and or underlying structure over scalp along with transverse limb defect. It was first described by Adam and Oliver in 1945. We report a rare case of Adams Oliver syndrome with limited expression involving scalp, transverse limb defects along with unreported truncal involvement.
