| Abstract: | We report on 12 Brazilian boys with the Opitz G/BBB syndrome associated with CNS midline anomalies, namely, Dandy-Walker anomaly (two patients), enlarged cisterna magna (four patients), enlarged 4th ventricle (four patients), and callosal a/hypoplasia (two patients). These signs clearly show the involvement of the CNS midline in the Opitz G/BBB syndrome. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc. |
