Genome‐wide linkage scan of nonsyndromic orofacial clefting in 91 families of central European origin

Abstract excerpt

Orofacial clefts are among the most common of all congenital disorders. Nonsyndromic cases of cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) and cleft palate only (NSCPO) are considered to have a multifactorial etiology which involves both genetic and environmental factors. We present the results of a genome-wide linkage scan in 91 families of central European descent with nonsyndromic orofacial clefts (NSC)....
