Pelvic radiograph in skeletal dysplasias: An approach

Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2017
The bony pelvis is constituted by the ilium, ischium, pubis, and sacrum. The pelvic radiograph is an important component of the skeletal survey performed in suspected skeletal dysplasia.

Exome Sequencing Uncovers Phenotypic and Genotypic Heterogeneity in 196 Indian Families Evaluated for Autoinflammatory Disorders

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autoinflammatory disorders (AIDs) are a clinically heterogeneous group of inborn errors of immunity primarily caused by dysregulation in the innate immune system. Clinical diagnosis is often challenging due to clinical heterogeneity and the overlapping phenotypes with other inborn errors of immunity and monogenic conditions that mimic AIDs ...

Case of Monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia in the hand [PDF]

, 2002
A case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia in the proximal phalanx of an otherwise healthy, twenty-five year old is discussed. Fibrous dysplasia in the hand is rarely seen. Our patient presented with a swelling in his proximal phalanx.

Spinal Involvement in Charge Syndrome: Implications for Management

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome (OMIM #214800) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the CHD7 gene in most cases. Although originally defined by the CHARGE acronym (coloboma, heart defects, choanal atresia, growth restriction, genital hypoplasia, and ear anomalies), the recognized phenotype has expanded considerably to include highly ...

A Rare Form of Microcephalic Primordial Dwarfism due to NSMCE2 Deficiency (Seckel Syndrome Type 10): A Report of Macular Involvement

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biallelic variants in NSMCE2 (MMS21), which encodes the SUMO E3 ligase subunit of the SMC5/6 chromatin‐maintenance complex, have recently been implicated in microcephalic primordial dwarfism (MPD), corresponding to Seckel syndrome type 10 (OMIM #617246).

ADNP‐Related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa Syndrome: A Review of the Literature and Clinical Recommendations for Assessment and Monitoring

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ADNP‐related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa syndrome (ADNP‐related HVDAS) is a single gene form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) caused by pathogenic sequence variants in the activity‐dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) gene. In addition to ASD, ADNP‐related HVDAS is associated with a wide range of cognitive, behavioral, and physical health ...

Expanding the Phenotypic Spectrum of TXNDC15‐Related Ciliopathies to Include Joubert Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biallelic loss‐of‐function variants in TXNDC15 are a known cause of the perinatally lethal ciliopathy Meckel syndrome (MKS). TXNDC15 encodes an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐resident thioredoxin‐domain protein required for ciliary transition zone integrity.

The burden of hospital admissions for skeletal dysplasias in Sri Lanka: a population-based study

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2023
Background Skeletal dysplasias are a diverse group of rare disorders in the chondro-osseous tissue that can have a significant impact on patient’s functionality. The worldwide prevalence of skeletal dysplasias at birth is approximately 1:5000 births.

TTC21B: From Modifier to Causative Gene in Joubert Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biallelic pathogenic variants in TTC21B, encoding the retrograde intraflagellar transport protein IFT139, are a known cause of renal and skeletal ciliopathies. Single heterozygous variants in this gene were found to be enriched in a cohort of patients with various ciliopathy phenotypes, including three individuals with Joubert syndrome (JS), a
