Abstract:
Cardiac and renal abnormalities have been reported infrequently in Townes-Brocks syndrome. This paper presents three new patients with this syndrome; previously undescribed cardiac and renal abnormalities consisting of truncus arteriosus, ventricular septal defect, unilateral renal agenesis, and renal dysplasia are presented. The spectrum of findings in this syndrome should include cardiac and renal abnormalities.
