Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (/ ˈ b ɛ k ˌ w ɪ θ ˈ v iː d ə. m ə n /; abbreviated BWS) is an overgrowth disorder usually present at birth, characterized by an increased risk of childhood cancer and certain congenital features.

Children with some overgrowth syndromes such as Klippel–Trénaunay syndrome can be readily detectable at birth. [3] In contrast, other overgrowth syndromes such as Proteus syndrome usually present in the postnatal period, characteristically between the second and third year of life. [ 2 ]
The following is a list of genetic disorders and if known, type of mutation and for the chromosome involved. Although the parlance "disease-causing gene" is common, it is the occurrence of an abnormality in the parents that causes the impairment to develop within the child.
Presence of neurological abnormality or macrocephaly can suggest macrocephaly-capillary malformation syndrome. Hemihypertrophy-multiple lipomatosis or Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome are diseases with total hypertrophy and are associated with an increased risk of Wilms' tumor. [26] [27] About 10% of DCMO cases present with total hemihypertrophy. [3]
