The Finnish Disease Heritage III: the individual diseases

Reijo Norio. Hum Genet. 2003 May.

Abstract

This article is the third and last in a series entitled The Finnish Disease Heritage I-III. All the 36 rare hereditary diseases belonging to this entity are described for clinical and molecular genetic purposes, based on the Finnish experience gathered over a period of half a century. In addition, five other diseases are mentioned. They may be included in the list of the "Finnish diseases" after adequate complementary studies.
