Brachial amelia, cleft lip, and holoprosencephaly

(Redirected from Amelia cleft lip palate hydrocephalus iris coloboma)

Brachial amelia, cleft lip, and holoprosencephaly, or Yim–Ebbin syndrome,[1] is a very rare multi-systemic genetic disorder which is characterized by brachial amelia (mainly that affecting the upper limbs) cleft lip, and forebrain defects such as holoprosencephaly.[2][3] Approximately five cases of this disorder have been described in medical literature.[4]

'Other signs include hydrocephalus and an iris coloboma.[1] It was first described by Yim and Ebbin in 1982,[5] and later by Thomas and Donnai in 1994.[6] In 1996, a third case was reported by Froster et al. who suggested that the three cases were related and represented a distinct syndrome.[7] In 2000, a similar case was reported by Pierri et al.[8]
