Crouzon syndrome: Genetic and intervention review [PDF]
Crouzon syndrome exhibits considerable phenotypic heterogeneity, in the aetiology of which genetics play an important role. FGFR2 mediates extracellular signals into cells and the mutations in the FGFR2 gene cause this syndrome occurrence. Activated FGFs/

Clinical characteristics of Crouzon syndrome.
Crouzon syndrome (CS) is an genetic disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance caused by mutation of the gene for fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) was described as one of the varieties of craniosynostosis. In this presented case, premature closure of the sutures had caused restricted skull growth and lack of space for the growing brain ...

Background Oculo-orbital disproportion in patients with craniosynostosis have similarities and dissimilarities between syndromic and nonsyndromic cases. We hypothesize these two conditions have specific individual influences as it relates to development ...

Apparently synonymous substitutions in FGFR2 affect splicing and result in mild Crouzon syndrome [PDF]
Background: Mutations of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) account for a higher proportion of genetic cases of craniosynostosis than any other gene, and are associated with a wide spectrum of severity of clinical problems.

Mechanical properties of calvarial bones in a mouse model for craniosynostosis [PDF]
The mammalian cranial vault largely consists of five flat bones that are joined together along their edges by soft fibrous tissues called sutures. Premature closure of the cranial sutures, craniosynostosis, can lead to serious clinical pathology unless ...

Crouzon syndrome: A comprehensive review and case report
Crouzon syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by craniosynostosis of coronal and sagittal sutures. Crouzon syndrome is caused by mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor-2 (FGFR-2) gene.
