Ohdo syndrome: report on a Brazilian girl with additional findings

Clinical Genetics
V L da Silva Lopes, M L Guion-Almeida

Abstract

We describe a Brazilian girl presenting Ohdo syndrome with cleft palate and diverticula of the bladder. Gestational history revealed the occurrence of fever for 12 days in the second month of gestation. To our knowledge, cleft palate and urinary abnormalites are hitherto undescribed features of this syndrome. Additional case reports could elucidate the fortuitous or causal association of these signs, the full phenotypic spectrum, as well as the pattern of transmission of the Ohdo syndrome.
