Anterior cervical hypertrichosis: a dominantly inherited isolated defect

Am J Med Genet. 1995 Feb 13;55(4):498-9. doi: 10.1002/ajmg.1320550421.

Abstract

We present a sporadic case of nonsyndromal anterior cervical hypertrichosis and review the literature. Based on prior documentation of dominant inheritance it is suggested that this case may be the result of a fresh mutation associated with older paternal age.
