The family investigated showed the presence of multiple genetic disorders among their members. The presumable defective genes were related to coagulation factor X, familial hypercholesterolemia, mitral valve prolapse, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The parents were offspring of two siblings, and their children comprised a nonidentical twin. While the proband demonstrated factor X deficiency, obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and primary hypercholesterolemia, her parents and her elder sister were considered heterozygous for factor X. In addition, her mother had elevated plasma cholesterol levels, and her father primary hypercholesterolemia as well as mitral valve prolapse. The twin sister, heterozygous for factor X deficiency, displayed mitral valve prolapse. The clustering of defective genes in this family was considered to represent 'coincidental' occurrences rather than being linked to each other.

D008945	Mitral Valve Prolapse	Abnormal protrusion or billowing of one or both of the leaflets of MITRAL VALVE into the LEFT ATRIUM during SYSTOLE. This allows the backflow of blood into left atrium leading to MITRAL VALVE INSUFFICIENCY; SYSTOLIC MURMURS; or CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA.

D002312	Cardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic	A form of CARDIAC MUSCLE disease, characterized by left and/or right ventricular hypertrophy (HYPERTROPHY, LEFT VENTRICULAR; HYPERTROPHY, RIGHT VENTRICULAR), frequent asymmetrical involvement of the HEART SEPTUM, and normal or reduced left ventricular volume. Risk factors include HYPERTENSION; AORTIC STENOSIS; and gene MUTATION; (FAMILIAL HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY).

D005171	Factor X Deficiency	Blood coagulation disorder usually inherited as an autosomal recessive trait, though it can be acquired. It is characterized by defective activity in both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, impaired thromboplastin time, and impaired prothrombin consumption.

D005810	Multigene Family	A set of genes descended by duplication and variation from some ancestral gene. Such genes may be clustered together on the same chromosome or dispersed on different chromosomes. Examples of multigene families include those that encode the hemoglobins, immunoglobulins, histocompatibility antigens, actins, tubulins, keratins, collagens, heat shock proteins, salivary glue proteins, chorion proteins, cuticle proteins, yolk proteins, and phaseolins, as well as histones, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA genes. The latter three are examples of reiterated genes, where hundreds of identical genes are present in a tandem array.
