Additional Information:

Clinical Description OMIM Dominguez et al. (1993) used the term caudal duplication syndrome to describe the occurrence of duplications of different organs in the caudal region. They reported 6 affected patients and reviewed 8 similar previously published cases.

Molecular genetics OMIM Kroes et al. (2002) noted that 2 genetic mouse models, 'fused' and 'disorganization,' show some resemblance to the caudal duplication anomaly. Because 'fused' results from mutations in the axin gene (603816), they performed DNA analysis of the AXIN1 ...
