Abstract:
Two patients with Adams-Oliver syndrome and congenital cardiac malformations are described. A literature review revealed at 13.4% occurrence of congenital cardiac malformations in individuals with Adams-Oliver syndrome, suggesting that cardiac anomalies are a frequent manifestation of this syndrome. All patients with Adams-Oliver syndrome (aplasia cutis congenita and terminal digital anomalies) should be evaluated for cardiac anomalies.
