It may be characterized by a wide spectrum of symptoms and findings that vary in range and severity from case to case. However, in many individuals with the syndrome, associated features may include above average weight and length at birth and/or increased growth after birth (postnatally); an unusually large tongue (macroglossia); enlargement of certain abdominal organs (visceromegaly); and/or abdominal wall defects. BWS may also be characterized by low blood sugar levels within the first days of life (neonatal hypoglycemia); advanced bone age, particularly up to age four; the presence of distinctive linear grooves in the ear lobes and/or other abnormalities of the facial area; and/or an increased risk of developing certain childhood cancers.

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome Also known as: Beckwith's syndrome Wiedemann’s syndrome Wiedemann-Beckwith syndrome Wiedemann-Beckwith-Combs syndrome Synonyms: Exophthalmos-macroglossia-gigantism syndrome, familial macroglossia-omphalocele syndrome; macroglossia-omphalocele syndrome, macroglossia-omphalocele-visceromegaly syndrome. Associated persons: John Bruce Beckwith J. T. Combs Hans-Rudolf Wiedemann Description: Main symptoms are gigantism, macroglossia and umbilical abnormalities in newborn, enlarged liver and spleen, hyperplasia of the kidney, congenital abnormalities of the urinary tract, slight microcephaly, clonic seizures, often omphalocele (congenital hernia into the umbilical cord). Elements of congestive heart failure. Some patients develop hemihypertrophy, and there appears to be an increased risk of adrenal carcinoma, Wilm’s tumor, or other intra-abdominal neoplasms. Mental retardation may occur. Etiology unknown. Most cases sporadic, but autosomal dominant inheritance reported. In 1963 Beckwith reported the autopsy findings in three affected children in the preceding year at the annual meeting of the Western Society of Paediatric Residents, Los Angeles. In 1964 he documented two further cases in an abstract, which was read by title at the American Paediatric Society meeting, Seattle. Wiedemann in 1964 described three siblings with a malformation syndrome in which umbilical hernia and enlargement of the tongue were significant features.

Cancer Facts CIS Home Cancer.gov Dictionary Search Date reviewed: 8/28/2000 Questions and Answers About Living With Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome What is Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS)? Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) is a rare overgrowth syndrome that occurs in approximately 1 in every 15,000 births. A small number of infants and children with BWS develop cancer Most children have only a few of the many distinct characteristics of the syndrome. The most common characteristics, which can range from mild to severe, are: Large tongue (macroglossia) Overall large body size with large organs Abdominal wall defects Above-average birth weight Uneven growth of limbs or organs (hemihypertrophy) Ear lobe creases or pits behind the upper ear Low blood sugar ( hypoglycemia ) shortly after birth Difficulty swallowing and eating Hearing loss Speech defects Occasional behavior abnormalities About 10 percent of children with BWS develop cancer (or 10 out of 100 children with BWS). Studies suggest that the period of highest risk for developing cancer is before the age of 4 years. The most common types of cancer that occur in children with BWS are Wilms’ tumor (kidney cancer) and hepatoblastoma liver cancer ). Other types of cancer, which occur more rarely, include adrenocortical
