X-linked: Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome is an X-linked condition characterized by pre- and postnatal overgrowth, coarse facies, congenital heart defects, and other congenital abnormalities. If you are a carrier, all of your male offspring will be afflicted. You should consult a clinical geneticist for genetic counseling prior to deciding to bear children.
