Abstract
• The inheritance of Robinow's syndrome has been thought to be autosomal dominant. However, since no cases of male-to-male transmission have been reported, it has been impossible to rule out X-linked dominant inheritance. We studied a case of male-to-male transmission in a father and son with Robinow's syndrome and cleft lip–cleft palate, confirming autosomal dominant inheritance in at least some cases.
