Abstract
Purpose: , showing that several cases were misdiagnosed and were, in fact, other entities. Nevertheless, there has not been any adequate phenotypic characterization of molecularly defined EVC syndrome so far. Methods: . Demographic, genetic, and clinical information of patients was assessed. Results: , as a potential genetic modifier of the severity of the EVC syndrome. Conclusion: , which had not been implicated in human disease before.
