Megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome: confirmation of autosomal recessive inheritance. 1986

R M Winter, and S A Knowles

We report two female sibs with the megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome. The parents are first cousins. These cases, together with three other published reports of affected sibs, confirm the autosomal recessive inheritance of the syndrome.
