However, no dislocation of the lenses or aneurysmal changes occur in the aorta, and the mitral valve prolapse is by no means invariable. at present it has been assigned no separate OMIM number, but shares that of the Barlow syndrome. Origin: mitral valve prolapse, aortic anomalies, skeletal changes, and skin changes. (05 Mar 2000)
