摘要
We present a dizygotic twin pair each with ventriculomegaly, a radial ray defect and multiple malformations in keeping with the VACTERL association. Molecular studies demonstrated that both are homozygous for IVS4 + 4 A-->T, a mutation in the Fanconi anemia complementation group C gene. This is the first molecular proof that VACTERL with hydrocephalus may be the result of severe Fanconi anemia. (C) 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
