Abstract

Mowat-Wilson syndrome (MWS) is a complex developmental disorder. We report the first prenatal diagnosis provided for a family in mainland China after identifying the causal mutation for the proband. Special focus on MWS-related organs during prenatal ultrasound scan is described which is extremely important for genetic counseling of parents.

Keywords: Causal mutation; Mowat–Wilson syndrome; ZEB2; prenatal diagnosis.
