title: Otopalatodigital syndrome type II associated with omphalocele: report of three cases.
abstract: We present 3 patients with otopalatodigital (OPD) syndrome type II and omphalocele; 2 of the cases are brothers. There are now 6 known cases of OPD type I or II with omphalocele. We propose that this combination is not coincidental and discuss mechanisms that may result in the combination of OPD, omphalocele, and other midline defects.
