The Axenfeld syndrome and the Rieger syndrome.
A family is reported in which both the syndrome of Axenfeld and the eye malformations of the syndrome of Rieger occur, indicating that both may be expressions of the same gene. We also review the associated anomalies already reported, emphasise their high incidence, suggest that these are not accidental associations, and propose some possible explanations for the high incidence.

Three cases of the association between the Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome and retinal detachment in one family are described. Serious damage to the posterior segment of the eye in the Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome has not previously been reported.
متن کاملCurrent molecular understanding of Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome.
Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is a rare autosomal dominant inherited disorder affecting the development of the eyes, teeth and abdomen. The syndrome is characterised by complete penetrance but variable expressivity. The ocular component of the ARS phenotype has acquired most clinical attention and has been dissected into a spectrum of developmental eye disorders, of which open-angle glaucoma r...
متن کاملA Novel Homozygous Mutation in FOXC1 Causes Axenfeld Rieger Syndrome with Congenital Glaucoma
BACKGROUND Anterior segment dysgenesis (ASD) disorders are a group of clinically and genetically heterogeneous phenotypes in which frequently cornea, iris, and lens are affected. This study aimed to identify novel mutations in PAX6, PITX2 and FOXC1 in families with anterior segment dysgenesis disorders. METHODS We studied 14 Pakistani and one Mexican family with Axenfeld Rieger syndrome (ARS;...
متن کاملThe Axenfeld syndrome and the Rieger syndrome NAOMI
The Rieger syndrome is caused by an autosomal dominant gene which produces malformations of the anterior chamber of the eye and the teeth. Though a wide spectrum of additional malformations is found, they form no recognisable pattern and so their association is considered to be accidental (Alkemade, 1969). The Axenfeld syndrome consists of two of the three major eye malformations found in the R...
