Abstract excerpt
Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) has an incidence of around 1/3000 births. Chromosomal anomalies constitute an important etiology for non-isolated CDH, and may participate to the identification of candidate genes for diaphragm development. We report on a microduplication identified by array-CGH (comparative genomic hybridization) including five contiguous genes (OPHN1, YIPF6, STARD8, EFNB1 and PJA1) and...
