title: Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome: update and historical footnote.
abstract: Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome (SWS) is, at last, beginning to emerge from the shadows of campomelic syndrome as a nosologically and, presumably, causally-distinct entity, first delineated in 1971 on the basis of 2 affected sisters. The fact that these sisters had an affected double first cousin supports autosomal-recessive inheritance of SWS.
