Abstract
- This introduction to the special issue of AJMG Part C: Overgrowth Syndromes updates the current understanding of overgrowth syndromes. We clarify the terminology associated with overgrowth, review some common pathways to overgrowth and present a preliminary classification based on currently known genomic and epigenetic mechanisms. We introduce the articles of this issue-new research and reviews of well-established and recently described overgrowth syndromes of the brain, body or both.<br /> (© 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.)
