  • Title: Split-foot anomaly, microphthalmia, cleft-lip and cleft-palate, and mental retardation associated with a chromosome 6;13 translocation.
    Author: Viljoen DL, Smart R.
    Journal: Clin Dysmorphol; 1993 Jul; 2(3):274-7. PubMed ID: 8287191.
    Abstract:
    The split-hand/split-foot anomaly is a component of several disorders which may occur sporadically or be transmitted as autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive traits. We describe a severely mentally handicapped patient with ectrodactyly of both feet in association with extreme microphthalmia, central cleft-lip and palate and mental retardation. She has an apparent de novo 46,XX,t(6;13) (q21;q12) unbalanced translocation. Either of these breakpoints may be the locus for the ectrodactyly-ectodermal dysplasia-facial cleft (EEC) syndrome.
