ADAMS-OLIVER-SYNDROME - AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE INHERITANCE AND NEW PHENOTYPIC-ANTHROPOMETRIC FINDINGS

We describe a new family with Adams-Oliver syndrome. One sib had scalp aplasia cutis congenita (SACC) and cutis marmorata and a second sib h ad SACC, cutis marmorata, and terminal lower limb defects. In both the findings were associated with oligohydramnios. The pedigree suggests autosomal recessive inheritance. New phenotypic-anthropometric finding s in one infant were upper limb micromelia and brachypodia. (C) 1998 W iley-Liss, Inc.
