TBX3‐ Related Disorder

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heterozygous pathogenic variants in TBX3 cause Ulnar‐Mammary syndrome (UMS). The phenotype is classically characterized by upper limb defects, apocrine/mammary gland hypoplasia, hypogonadism, and various midline defects. However, the clinical spectrum is highly variable, and some individuals may present with a mild or atypical presentation ...

Mortality Patterns and Phenotypic Clusters in Trisomy 13: A Population‐Based Study From Japan

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trisomy 13, the third most common autosomal trisomy after trisomy 21 and trisomy 18, is associated with a significantly high infant mortality rate. However, large‐scale studies examining causes of death in trisomy 13 remain scarce. Therefore, we aimed to better understand the mortality patterns.
