Holzgreve syndrome: recurrence in sibs

Am J Med Genet. 1993 Mar 15;45(6):767-9. doi: 10.1002/ajmg.1320450621.

Abstract

We report on 2 sibs with cardiac and renal abnormalities. The first had hypoplastic left heart sequence and renal hypoplasia; the second had a complex congenital heart defect, renal agenesis, and cleft lip and palate. We suggest that these cases represent the first familial examples of the Holzgreve syndrome. As such, they demonstrate the phenotypic variability seen in sibs, and may serve to further delineate the syndrome.
