Answer of the expert...
- Heredity and level of affectedness with CdLS
- Family Issues
- What are the possibilities for an individual with CdLS to have a child with CdLS? If they do, will that child most likely show a similar level of affectedness?
-
Individuals with CdLS are likely to be the more mildly affected if they are able to achieve reproduction. This type is thought to be due to a dominant gene. This means that the individual with CdLS has a 50% chance, in each reproductive event, to have a child with CdLS. The child may be similarly affected or more severely affected than the parent.
