Conradi-Hunermann syndrome
Inheritance patterns and prenatal diagnosis
Inheritance patterns
There is an autosomal dominant and X-linked dominant form of Conradi-Hunermann syndrome. In addition there are autosomal recessive and X-linked recessive forms of chondrodysplasia punctata which can be sometimes be mistaken for Conradi-Hunermann syndrome. The genes which cause some of these conditions are known and can be tested for.
Prenatal diagnosis
This may be possible if the exact cause of the condition is known. In other cases ultrasound scanning may be helpful.
