Do you know any doctors who are familiar with the peho syndrome. My boyfriends daughter of 5yrs has peho but becuase it s such a rare desease there isn t much information on it. I m curious to know if we have a child that our child might be born with this syndrome as well.
Hi...coming to your query directly - PESO syndrome might have an - Autosomal recessive inheritance. For you to be clear I will explain what an autosomal recessive inheritance is - a characteristic or condition that appears only in individuals who have received two copies of an altered gene, once copy from each parent.  People with two copies of the altered gene are called homo zygotes.  Their parents, each with a single copy of the altered gene, appear normal and are called heterozygotes or carriers of the altered gene. A person with an autosomal recessive condition must have inherited one gene alteration from each parent. In autosomal recessive inheritance, people with one copy of the gene alteration do not have the condition.  They are said to be carriers for the autosomal recessive condition. So if you do not have that gene mutation in you - then it is unlikely that the kid born to you and your boyfriend will get this PESO syn Chat Doctor. Regards -
