Spina bifida2
  • In 1996, the US National Academy of Sciences reported that there was evidence that suggested dioxin and Agent Orange exposure caused spina bifida, a birth defect in which the spinal cord develops improperly. (asu.edu)
  • Arnold·Chiari syndrome is frequently associated with spina bifida. (brainscape.com)

Genes5
  • As the genes on the short arm of chromosome 13 are relatively insignificant in comparison with those on the long arm, the clinical manifestation is similar to that seen in 13q deletion syndrome. (socialstyrelsen.se)
  • What genes are related to Dandy-Walker syndrome? (chask.org)
  • Autosomal recessive inheritance might occur in some families where the syndrome recurred in siblings who tested negative in the aforementioned genes (although recurrence in siblings might also be explained by parental germline mosaicism for dominant mutations). (bredagenetics.com)
  • Whole exome sequencing may reveal pathogenic mutations in known and as-yet-unknown genes while enabling immediate differential diagnosis with similar conditions such as Nicolaides-Baraitser and Cornelia de Lange syndromes . (bredagenetics.com)
  • Due to genetic heterogeneity and the possibility of as yet unknown associated genes, Coffin-Siris syndrome is a perfect candidate to panel testing based on clinical exome sequencing or whole exome sequencing. (bredagenetics.com)

Prenatal2
  • This page provides brief descriptions and links to resources for some of the more common-although still relatively rare-syndromes and prenatal/congenital causes. (nationaldb.org)
  • Because of the autosomal recessive inheritence of Neu-Laxova syndrome, in countries with high rates of consanguineous marriage, serial prenatal ultrasound examinations with genetic counseling should be performed on pregnant women at high risk to offer termination of affected pregnancies.

  • The gene responsible for Fraser syndrome has not yet been identified, but it is known to be transmitted as a non-sex linked (autosomal) recessive trait. (encyclopedia.com)

Infants4
  • Infants with 13q deletion syndrome will have low birth weights owing to intrauterine growth restriction. (socialstyrelsen.se)
  • PHACE (or PHACES) syndrome is most commonly found in female, singleton, term, normal birth weight infants. (mhmedical.com)
  • It is classified as an overgrowth syndrome, which means that affected infants are considerably larger than normal (macrosomia) and tend to be taller than their peers during childhood. (nih.gov)
  • Some infants with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome have an abnormally large tongue (macroglossia), which may interfere with breathing, swallowing, and speaking. (nih.gov)
