ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the genetic cause for two children with omphalocele.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The patients were examined, and the medical history of their families was collected. Methylation-specific multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA) was performed to detect potential mutation in the patients.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Loss of methylation of imprinting center 2 (IC2) at the 11p15.5 region of the maternal chromosome was detected in both children.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The two patients were diagnosed with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome by MS-MLPA. The loss of methylation of IC2 probably underlies the disease in both patients.</p>
