✦ Synopsis

McCredie and Reid [(1978): J Pediatr 92: 76!2-7651 described an association of diaphragmatic hernia and upper limb deficiencies. Lerone et al. [(1992): Am J Med Genet 445427-8291 recently described a new case with this combination. We present an epidemiological study using two analytic methods with data from the Spanish Collaborative Study of Congenital Malformations (ECEMC). The results support the suggestion that the concurrence of these two congenital anomalies constitutes a polytopic primary developmental field defect.

Several studies have been published on congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH), either as an isolated defect or as part of a multiple congenital anomaly (MCA) pattern. Here we present an epidemiological study designed to measure the association between CDH and a group of 17 selected congenital anomali

Previously we proposed that the VACTERL association represents a dysmorphogenetic response of the primary developmental field, i.e., polytopic developmental field defects (DFD). As such, it should conform to the essential attributes of a DFD, namely, heterogeneity, homology, and phylogeneity. To stu

We report on prenatal and postnatal findings in 4 consecutive fetuses with a pattern of severe congenital anomalies who were born to a healthy nonconsanguineous couple. The spectrum of malformations includes diaphragmatic defects, hypoplastic lungs, omphalocele, limb deficiencies, syndactyly of toes

Here we present the analysis of deformations observed in a series of 26,810 consecutive infants with congenital defects. We observed that 3.88% of these infants had deformations, for a prevalence figure of 0.07% live-born infants. From the present study we can conclude that there are three different
