Survey of genetic counselors and clinical geneticists regarding recurrence risks for families with nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate
Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is a common congenital malformation affecting about 1/1,000 caucasian infants. Although the familial clustering of CLfP has been studied thoroughly, estimation of recurrence risk for genetic counseling purposes can be difficult. A survey was...

A survey was mailed to 912 board-certified genetic counselors, 542 non-board-certified genetic counselors, and 776 board-certified clinical geneticists to investigate the recurrence risks they would assign to three example families with CL/P.
