Although this disorder is inherited as an autosomal-dominant trait, the pedigree is more consistent with either autosomal-recessive inheritance or germ-line mosaicism for a mutation in one of the ...

When the causative mutation occurs in germ cells, it is known as gonadal mosaicism. Birthmarks are not usually inherited because sperm cell genes are rarely mutated. However, when inheritance does ...
