Preferred Label : Renal dysplasia-limb defects syndrome;
Type : Other, mainly phenotypes with suspected mendelian basis;
Alternative titles and symbols : Rl syndrome;
Description : Schrander-Stumpel et al. (1990) described newborn brother and sister who died shortly
after birth from respiratory failure. They showed growth retardation with a Potter-like
face, complete phocomelia of the upper limbs, severe hypoplasia of the 6 upper ribs,
renal dysplasia and abnormalities of the external genitalia. They suggested that these
cases represent the same entity reported by Ulbright et al. (1984). The syndrome appears
to be lethal because of severe renal dysplasia which causes oligohydramnios and pulmonary
hypoplasia. Schrander-Stumpel et al. (1990) suggested the designations 'renal dysplasia--limb
defects syndrome (RL syndrome).' *FIELD* RF 1. Schrander-Stumpel, C.; de Die-Smulders,
