Autosomal recessive cleft lip/palate, ectodermal dysplasia, and minor acral anomalies: report of a Brazilian family.
We report on a Brazilian woman, born to consanguineous (first cousin) parents (F = 1/16) and presenting cleft lip/palate, ectodermal dysplasia, interdigital webbing, and other malformations. Parental consanguinity and possible recurrence in sibs suggest autosomal recessive inheritance. The nosologic aspects with the Martinez syndrome and with the Zlotogora-Ogur syndrome are discussed.
