Lumping and Splitting is the process by which ClinGen curation groups determine which disease entity they will use for evaluation. Groups review current disease and/or phenotype assertions (e.g. OMIM MIM phenotypes) and select the included and excluded phenotypes according to current guidelines. MIM phenotypes represented below are those that were available on the stated evaluation date.
Included MIM Phenotypes :
Excluded MIM Phenotypes :
No Excluded MIM Phenotypes were specified
Evaluation Date :
