  • Title: [Kaufmann syndrome or VACTERL association? Discussion of a differential diagnosis].
    Author: Dodinval P, Daemers G, Legat C.
    Journal: J Genet Hum; 1984 Jun; 32(2):129-36. PubMed ID: 6736938.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe a dysmature female newborn, with multiple birth defects, who died soon after birth. At first polydactyly and hydrometrocolpos let think of a Kaufman syndrome, with autosomal recessive inheritance. But due to the presence of other malformations and since polydactyly is preaxial, the whole clinical and anatomical picture may be put into the frame of VACTERL association, mainly sporadic. Thus seemingly hydrometrocolpos and urogenital sinus have to be added, although rarely, to the other known defects of the VACTERL association.
