Holt-Oram syndrome
Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS) is characterized by upper-limb defects, congenital heart malformation, and cardiac conduction disease. Upper-limb malformations may be unilateral, bilateral/symmetric, or bilateral/asymmetric and can range from triphalangeal or absent thumb(s) to phocomelia. Other upper-limb malformations can include unequal arm length caused by aplasia or hypoplasia of the radius, fusion or anomalous development of the carpal and thenar bones, abnormal forearm pronation and supination, abnormal opposition of the thumb, sloping shoulders, and restriction of shoulder joint movement. An abnormal carpal bone is present in all affected individuals and may be the only evidence of disease. A congenital heart malformation is present in 75% of individuals with HOS and most commonly involves the septum. Atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect can vary in number, size, and location. Complex congenital heart malformations can also occur in individuals with HOS. Individuals with HOS with or without a congenital heart malformation are at risk for cardiac conduction disease. While individuals may present at birth with sinus bradycardia and first-degree atrioventricular (AV) block, AV block can progress unpredictably to a higher grade including complete heart block with and without atrial fibrillation.

Velocardiofacial syndrome
Individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) can present with a wide range of features that are highly variable, even within families. The major clinical manifestations of 22q11.2DS include congenital heart disease, particularly conotruncal malformations (ventricular septal defect, tetralogy of Fallot, interrupted aortic arch, and truncus arteriosus), palatal abnormalities (velopharyngeal incompetence, submucosal cleft palate, bifid uvula, and cleft palate), immune deficiency, characteristic facial features, and learning difficulties. Hearing loss can be sensorineural and/or conductive. Laryngotracheoesophageal, gastrointestinal, ophthalmologic, central nervous system, skeletal, and genitourinary anomalies also occur. Psychiatric illness and autoimmune disorders are more common in individuals with 22q11.2DS. [from GeneReviews]
Heart-hand syndrome
Heart-hand syndrome refers to a group of congenital disorders characterized by malformations of the upper limbs and heart. To date, heart-hand syndrome comprises the following rare syndromes; Holt-Oram syndrome; heart-hand syndrome type 2; heart-hand syndrome type 3; heart hand syndrome, Slovenian type, brachydactyly-long thumb; and patent ductus arteriosus-bicuspid aortic valve - hand anomalies (see these terms).

22q11.2 deletion syndrome
A rare chromosomal anomaly which causes a congenital malformation disorder that is typically characterized by cardiac defects, palatal anomalies, facial dysmorphism, developmental delay and immune deficiency. [from ORDO]
DiGeorge syndrome
Lymphatic malformation
Primary lymphedema is caused by anatomic or functional defects in the lymphatic system, resulting in chronic swelling of body parts and lymphatic-system malformation. [from MONDO]
Hypoparathyroidism
A condition caused by a deficiency of parathyroid hormone characterized by hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia. [from HPO]
