Germline mutation in <i>DOK7</i> associated with fetal akinesia deformation sequence

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fetal akinesia deformation sequence syndrome (FADS) is a heterogeneous disorder characterised by fetal akinesia and developmental defects including, in some case, pterygia. Multiple pterygium syndromes (MPS) are traditionally divided into prenatally lethal and non-lethal (such as Escobar) types.
