  • Title: Six generations of a family with multiple limb deficiencies.
    Author: Helal A, Perry T, Ogden JA, Greene TL.
    Journal: J Pediatr Orthop; 1993; 13(2):210-3. PubMed ID: 8459013.
    Abstract:
    Ectrodactyly, with or without other limb reduction defects, is a rare congenital anomaly. The pattern of inheritance is usually autosomal dominant, but with variable morphology. We report six generations of a family with this anomaly, with a progressive increase in severity and extent of involvement. Implications of genetic counseling are discussed.
