Survivorship of Individuals With Double Heterozygosity for Achondroplasia and Type 2 Collagenopathy

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Historically, double heterozygosity, or a diagnosis of two separate, dominant genetic conditions, was often thought to be lethal in individuals with autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias. In previously published studies of individuals with dual dysplasia diagnoses of achondroplasia and type 2 collagenopathy, infants died of respiratory ...

A Population‐Based Study of Limb Body Wall Complex With Proposed Features for Prenatal Diagnosis

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limb body wall complex (LBWC) is a lethal condition comprising major congenital anomalies. Although currently diagnosed in the early prenatal period, historical diagnostic criteria are based on detailed pathological assessments. Prenatal and postnatal findings of LBWC and their phenotypic overlap with body stalk anomaly (BSA) and recurrent ...

Severe Nerve Enlargement in SOS2‐Related Noonan Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Noonan syndrome is a genetic multisystem congenital disorder, caused by pathogenic variants in genes that encode components of the RAS/MAPK signaling pathway. Pathogenic variants in SOS2 represent less than 2% of cases with NS. The phenotype includes a particularly high prevalence (65%) of lymphatic disease. Recently, severe nerve enlargements

An International ASXL3 Natural History Study: Deep Phenotypic Analyses Including Detailed Reports of a Milder Phenotype, Novel Associations, and Clinical Recommendations

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Natural History Studies can help inform clinician and caregiver expectations, form the basis of management guidelines, and provide a comparator for therapeutic intervention. In rare conditions, where collection of prospective longitudinal data is untimely and impractical, quasi‐natural history data—from multiple individuals of different ages ...

THE TREATMENT OF SCOLIOSIS [PDF]

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1917
From the earliest times, scoliosis has been written about and described in such a way as to make it the most complex subject in orthopedics. It would seem that if the explanations and descriptions could be reduced to simpler terms, the principles of treatment would be fewer and simpler, even though the ultimate results were still difficult of ...
