Beckwith-Weidemann syndrome with IC2 (KvDMR1) hypomethylation defect: a novel mutation

The Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a rare genetic syndrome. However, this is one of the most common overgrowth syndromes. This is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous syndrome. Here, we report a case of Beckwith-Weidemann syndrome without macrosomia, visceromegaly and hemihyperplasia but having macroglossia, omphalocele and anterior linear ear lobe creases. The diagnosis was confirmed by gene analysis suggestive of imprinting centre 2 (KvDMR1) hypomethylation defect.
