Abstract
Fetal Akinesia Deformation Sequence (FADS) is a rare, in most cases autosomal recessive,
disorder. Its heterogeneous origin results in variable onset and expression of motor
and postural anomalies. DNA-diagnostic possibilities are limited, thus prenatal diagnosis
is chiefly dependent on sonographic examinations.
