Apert Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesIranian Rehabilitation Journal, 2012
Apert syndrome is a genetic defect which was first described by Eugene Apert in 1906. it's incidence is approximately one in 50000 births. This syndrome is many abnormalities in your body and Central Nervous System.

Clinical Presentation of the Longest Reported Living Individual With Bent Bone Dysplasia—FGFR2‐Related

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 3, Page 728-732, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The FGFR2 gene, encoding the FGFR2 protein, plays a crucial role in embryonic cell development, particularly in bone tissue. Bent Bone Dysplasia (BBD), FGFR2‐related (MIM# 614592), is a rare severe skeletal dysplasia characterized by craniofacial differences, reduced bone mineral density, and bowed long bones.

Classification of Subtypes of Apert Syndrome, Based on the Type of Vault Suture Synostosis

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2019
Background:. Apert syndrome patients are different in clinical pathology, including obstructive sleep apnea, cleft palate, and mental deficiency. These functional deficiencies may be due to anatomic deformities, which may be caused by different forms of ...

The Metacarpophalangeal Pattern Profile: An Old Method With New Insights Into the Evaluation of Short Stature

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 38, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize the metacarpophalangeal pattern profile (MCPP) of healthy children and adolescents from São Paulo, Brazil, and to establish percentile curves by chronological age (CA), bone age (BA), and sex using the LMS method. Additionally, to compare these findings with previous population‐based data and to apply the derived ...

A deletion of FGFR2 creating a chimeric IIIb/IIIc exon in a child with Apert syndrome

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2011
Background Signalling by fibroblast growth factor receptor type 2 (FGFR2) normally involves a tissue-specific alternative splice choice between two exons (IIIb and IIIc), which generates two receptor isoforms (FGFR2b and FGFR2c respectively) with ...

Electrocardiographic variables in children with syndromic craniosynostosis and primary snoring to mild obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: In the spectrum of children with symptomatic sleep disordered breathing (SDB), some individuals – such as those with upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS) – do not have abnormalities on polysomnography (PSG).

Pterygoid bone malformation and its limitations on the effectiveness of brachycephalic airway corrective surgery in brachycephalic dogs

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 67, Issue 2, Page 105-111, February 2026.
Objectives This study aimed to examine the association between pterygoid bone medialisation and treatment outcomes after upper airway surgery in three brachycephalic breeds. Materials and Methods Dogs that underwent CT of the head followed by routine surgery for brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome were recruited in this study.

Patterns of brain growth in one FGFR2 mouse model for Apert Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Apert syndrome is a disorder associated with craniosynostosis resulting from one of two mutations in Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2 (FGFR2). Individuals with Apert syndrome demonstrate brain dysmorphology, often associated with cognitive deficits ...
