Hum Genet. 1986 Oct;74(2):200-2. doi: 10.1007/BF00282095.

Abstract

Two unrelated families, one with 15 and the other with 3 members affected with macroglossia as a sole trait, are described. It is concluded that this entity differs from previously reported syndromes presenting macroglossia and is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion.
