An extensive phenotype-genotype comparison in 17 different kindreds containing 14 different mutations. This is the largest such comparison to date. It provides considerable insight into the hypothesized genotype-phenotype correlations in patients with HOS and shows that Okihiro syndrome is often confused with HOS.

J Med Genet 2003, 40:473-478. This report provides evidence that some patients diagnosed with HOS in fact have mutations in SALL4, further emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis and mutation screening.
