  1. Abbreviations: AC, aortic coarctation; ASD, atrial septal defect; del, deletion; F, female; M, male; MA, mitral atresia; VSD, ventricular septal defect.
  2. aThe father and a sister of AO39 are microcephalic and have digital anomalies (brachymesophalangy of the second and fifth fingers and brachysyndactyly of the toes). The sister has also learning disabilities.
  3. bThe mother of AO41 is microcephalic and has anomalies in the hand (brachymesophalangy of the second and fifth fingers).
