Consanguineous


Definition:

  • (a.) Of the same blood; related by birth; descended from the same parent or ancestor.

Example Sentences:

  • (4) Any patient with a fairly symmetrical 'quiet' eye disease, especially if congenital, should be suspected of having an hereditary disease--presumably due to a recessive gene, even if the parents are not consanguineous, but possibly due to a mutation which could prove dominant; a search of the literature in such cases is useful.
  • (5) Taking advantage of the availability of an archive of consanguineous marriages that gives accurate estimates of consanguinity in Italy, it has been possible to calculate the increase of first- and second-cousin marriages among 624 couples of cystic fibrosis (CF) parents over the general population.
