Síndrome de Aase-Smith

Causas, incidencia y factores de riesgo:

La mayoría de los casos del síndrome de Aase ocurren sin una razón conocida y se transmiten de padres a hijos (hereditario). Sin embargo, se ha demostrado que algunos casos se heredan como rasgo autosómico dominante y autosómico recesivo .
