Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele).

Definition

Sacral agenesis-abnormal ossification of the vertebral bodies-persistent notochordal canal syndrome is a rare, genetic, neural tube defect malformation syndrome characterized by sacral agenesis and abnormal vertebral body ossification with normal vertebral arches associated with notochord canal persistence on ultrasonography. Additional findings include bilateral clubfoot, oligohydramnios, single umbilical artery and, in some, increased nuchal translucency. [from ORDO]
