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.
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 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...
متن کاملAnomalous Scleral Insertion of Superior Oblique in Axenfeld-Rieger Syndrome
Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is associated with ocular and systemic anomalies. PITX2 is known to be a major controlling gene in the pathogenesis of ARS and is associated with differentiation in both the neural crest and mesoderm during eye development. A 4-year-old girl with bilateral ARS had 20 prism diopters (PD) of exotropia with 30PD of A- pattern deviation, more than 20PD of dissociated ...
