| Publisher Description: There is often limited professional knowledge, experience and awareness of the manifestations of very rare genetic disorders, and their most appropriate management because of the small number of patients having each one of them. It is generally difficult to diagnose a rare disease or disorder because it is impracticable for doctors to be familiar with thousands of rare conditions. However, the early diagnosis of rare genetic disorders plays a vital role in preventing the disorder through appropriate genetic counseling. It can be very harmful for the parents when the possible recurrence of a genetic condition is neglected by attributing the abnormalities caused by a rare genetic disorder to non-inherited conditions such as congenital infection or administration of medications during pregnancy. Adams Oliver syndrome is a very rare genetic disorder with some of its manifestations commonly attributed to congenital infection or administration of medications during pregnancy. Adams Oliver syndrome has not been reported before in Iraq. The main aim of this book is to describe the first case of this syndrome in Iraq. The book also describes the historic documentation of the syndrome in the literature. |
