Branchio-oto-renal (BOR) syndrome: variable expressivity in a five-generation pedigree

A five-generation family with the branchio-oto-renal (BOR) syndrome is reported demonstrating the great variability of this syndrome. Symptoms of the branchio-oto, branchio-oto-ureteral, and BOR syndromes are seen in different members of this family, suggesting that these are not real entities, but variants of the BOR syndrome.
