We describe the antenatal ultrasound findings of growth retardation, oligohydramnios, mesomelic limb shortness, and cardiac, renal, and hand defects in a fetus who was postnatally diagnosed as having RSH ("Smith-Lemli-Opitz") syndrome. An unusual finding was ectrodactyly of both hands.
The RSH/Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (RSH/SLOS) is a relatively common, autosomal recessive malformation syndrome comprising distinctive facial, limb and genital anomalies, and mental retardation. Most patients with a clinical diagnosis of RSH/SLOS have a defect of cholesterol biosynthesis at the leve
The behavior phenotype of Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) was studied by assessing behavior, social, and communication abilities, sensory hyperreactivity, and the deficits associated with autistic disorder. Fifty-six SLOS subjects, age 0.3 to 32.3 years, were evaluated by multiple age-dependent qu
