Mandibulofacial Dysostosis with Microcephaly: Mutation and Database Update. [PDF]

Hum Mutat, 2016
Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a multiple malformation syndrome comprising microcephaly, craniofacial anomalies, hearing loss, dysmorphic features, and, in some cases, esophageal atresia. Haploinsufficiency of a spliceosomal GTPase, U5-116 kDa/EFTUD2, is responsible.

"Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly" caused by EFTUD2 mutations: expanding the phenotype. [PDF]

Am J Med Genet A, 2013
AbstractHeterozygous mutations in the EFTUD2 were identified in 12 individuals with a rare sporadic craniofacial condition termed Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MIM 610536). We present clinical and radiographic features of three additional patients with de novo heterozygous mutations in EFTUD2.

Haploinsufficiency of a spliceosomal GTPase encoded by EFTUD2 causes mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly. [PDF]

Am J Hum Genet, 2012
Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a rare sporadic syndrome comprising craniofacial malformations, microcephaly, developmental delay, and a recognizable dysmorphic appearance. Major sequelae, including choanal atresia, sensorineural hearing loss, and cleft palate, each occur in a significant proportion of affected individuals.

A novel <i>EFTUD2</i> splicing variant causing mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly: a case report. [PDF]

Transl Pediatr
BACKGROUND: Mandibulofacial dysostosis with microcephaly (MFDM) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the EFTUD2 gene, presenting with craniofacial anomalies, microcephaly, and systemic abnormalities. Despite several reported cases, the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying MFDM remain inadequately understood ...

Addressing the Diagnostic Odyssey for Adults With Neurodevelopmental Disabilities: Case Study of an Individual With Mandibulofacial Dysostosis With Microcephaly

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A
ABSTRACTWhole exome sequencing (WES) has been widely used in the pediatric setting to increase diagnostic yield, provide treatment options, and to estimate reoccurrence risks. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the utility of this technology in adults with neurodevelopmental disabilities.
