Familial recurrence risk
Genetic counselling should be offered to all families with a family member with CdLS. Genetic counselling is when prospective parents are given advice about the risks of having a child with a genetic disorder.
In general the recurrence risk is small as in most cases the mutation occurs spontaneously after fertilisation. But this should be examined, as the mutation can be present in the father or the mother.
