This is a complete, medically reliable dictionary of congenital
malformations and disorders. As the authors explain, "Down syndrome
is the only common congenital disorder; the other defects and
disorders are rare or very rare, some having been reported fewer
than 20 times worldwide." This dictionary covers them all.
Examples: Aagenaes syndrome is due to congenital hypoplasia of
lymph vessels, which causes lymphedema of the legs and recurrent
cholestasis in infancy, and slow progress to hepatic cirrhosis and
giant-cell hepatitis with fibrosis of the portal tracts.
Acrocallosal syndrome is characterized by total or partial absence
of the corpus callosum, craniofacial dysmorphism, polydactyly, and
severe mental retardation. Other features can be retinal
pigmentation anomalies, optic atrophy, strabismus, nystagmus, cleft
lip and palate, cardiovascular anomalies, hernia, abnormal nipples,
and fits. Acrodysostosis is characterized by prenatal growth
deficiency, brachycephaly, deformities of the humerus, radius and
ulna, short and broad hands, hypoplastic maxilla, and mental
retardation.
