Abstract
X-linked laterality sequence (XLLS) consists of situs inversus, comple x cardiac defects, and alterations in the development of the spleen. W e describe a family in which two male cousins had XLLS with caudal man ifestations. In our family, the obligate carrier females had uterine s eptum and hypertelorism, which may be gene carrier manifestations. (C) 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
