title: Adams-Oliver syndrome: autosomal recessive inheritance and new phenotypic-anthropometric findings.
abstract: We describe a new family with Adams-Oliver syndrome. One sib had scalp aplasia cutis congenita (SACC) and cutis marmorata and a second sib had SACC, cutis marmorata, and terminal lower limb defects. In both the findings were associated with oligohydramnios. The pedigree suggests autosomal recessive inheritance. New phenotypic-anthropometric findings in one infant were upper limb micromelia and brachypodia.
