Oculo-auriculo-vertebral complex and uncommon associated anomalies: report on 8 unrelated Brazilian patients

Am J Med Genet. 1992 Nov 15;44(5):683-90. doi: 10.1002/ajmg.1320440530.

Abstract

We report on 8 Brazilian patients with the oculo-auriculo-vertebral (OAV) complex with associated uncommon anomalies of hydrocephalus, porencephalic cyst, hand abnormalities, terminal/paraxial hemimelia, Klippel-Feil anomaly, Rokitansky sequence, fibrous dysplasia, and dextrocardia. Our patients show that in some instances a definite diagnosis can be difficult within the wide clinical picture of the OAV complex.
