Peters’-plus syndrome, also known as Peter s syndrome, is widely believed to be an autosomal recessively inherited disorder and thus occurs infrequently. Currently there appears to be some consensus that Peters -plus syndrome and Krause-Kivlin Syndrome (or Kivlin syndrome) are the same disorder. Peters’-Plus Syndrome is characterized by a typical face, short limb dwarfism, Peter’s anomaly (a corneal abnormality), and growth retardation. In many cases, cleft lip and palate, visceral anomalies, and mental retardation are also present. Increased incidence of fetal loss in families in which Peters’-plus syndrome is present suggests the intrauterine death of some fetuses affected by Peters’-plus syndrome.
