A now two years old girl had developed respiratory insufficiency shortly after birth requiring prolonged artificial ventilation. A hypo- and dysplasia of the right lung was identified as the underlying cause. Further diagnostic evaluation revealed a malformation of bones, i.e. shortness of the humerus, aplasia of the radius, shortness of the ulna and a congenital anlage of four metacarpal bones in fixed malposition. In addition, an atrial septal defect of the sinus venous type with left-to-right shunting was present. This, in combination with the sceletal abnormalities pointed to the diagnosis of Holt-Oram syndrome. In her first year of life the patient also developed a hypertrophic non-obstructive cardiomyopathy. Cytogenetic analysis of her family revealed a reciporke translocation between chromosome 1 and 11 (t -1, -11 (1p13, 11q13)) in the patient herself, her father and the father and a sister of her father. However, this finding as well as the hypertrophic cardiomyopathy has to be regarded as being independent from Holt-Oram syndrome.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy may be secondary to a mutation in the cardiac beta myosin heavy chain (14q11-q12), alpha tropomyosin (15q22), troponin T (1q32), protein C gene (11p11-q13) or in a non yet mapped gene. A X-linked dilated cardiomyopathy may be due to a mutation in the dystrophin gene (Xp21). The long QT syndrome may be secondary to a mutation in a potassium channel (7q35-36), an alpha subunit of the sodium channel gene (3p21) or in genes not yet identified (11p15.5, 4q25-q27). Marfan syndrome is associated to mutations in the fibrillin 1 gene (15q21.1) and a Marfan-like syndrome with not ocular anomalies was mapped to 3p24. Patients with Williams-Beuren syndrome have microdeletions in 7q11, whereas in the supravalvular aortic stenosis, the elastin gene which maps to the same region, is mutated. In Di George and Shprintzen syndromes but not in conotruncal malformations, microdeletions in 22q11 are observed. Heterotaxia can be transmitted by 3 types of mendelian inheritance (Xq24-q27.1). Finally, other diseases were mapped: Noonan and Holt-Oram syndromes (12q), isolated conduction blocks (19q13.3), arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (14q23-q24), total anomalous pulmonary venous return (4p13-q12) and Osler-Weber-Rendu (9q33-q34.1, 3p22 and 12q1). In the near future, these incoming data will deeply modify the cardiovascular field.
