The IVIC syndrome is an autosomal dominant complex pleiotropic syndrome with radial ray hypoplasia, hearing impairment, external ophthalmoplegia, and thrombocytopenia. It is caused by mutations in the SALL4. SALL4 encodes a transcription factor with a wide expression in early embryogenesis, and later expression restricted to adult testis and ovary.
