We report on a male patient with bilateral upper limb amelia, facial clefts, and bilateral renal hypoplasia. We compare the clinical findings in our patient with those of the other three similar cases reported. This is the first long-surviving patient described with this association of malformations

โฆ Synopsis
We report on a 20-month-old girl with hypothalamic hamartoma, left cerebral atrophy, tongue nodules, oral frenula, micrognathia, hypoplasia of the left ulna, the fibulae, and right tibia, polysyndactyly of the hands and feet, vagino-cystic drainage with hydrometrocolpos, megaloureters, and hydronephrosis, agenesis of urethra, complex partial seizures, and central precocious puberty. The differential diagnosis is discussed. We conclude that the malformation complex in this girl is an oral-facial-digital syndrome, but is different from any of the 11 known subtypes. Am.

We report on an 18-year-old man with moderate mental retardation, multiple congenital anomalies and partial trisomy 7q21.2-->q22.1, as the unbalanced product of a familial balanced 7q/6q insertion translocation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of interstitial trisomy 7q21.2--
Recent discoveries in the molecular biology of the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) locus in the q22-23 region of chromosome 10 prove and/or suggest that several syndromes previously considered to be clinically and genetically distinct entities should actually be unified into a single entity.

We describe a 5-4/12-year-old girl with the unique combination of bilateral radial ray hypoplasia and multiple epiphyseal dysplasia (MED). Radial ray hypoplasia was diagnosed at birth. MED was documented at age 4-3/12 years when she presented with leg pain and short stature and was found to have fem
The oral-facial-digital syndrome type 1 (OFD1) includes limb, facial, intraoral malformations and the gene for the disorder was recently mapped to Xp22.3-p22.2. We report on monozygotic twin girls discordant for OFD1. Monozygosity is supported by placental pathology (monochorionic diamniotic) and mo
