Chromosome 11q13 deletion syndrome
Chromosome 11q13 deletion syndrome has been previously reported as either otodental syndrome or oculo-oto-dental syndrome. The otodental syndrome is characterized by dental abnormalities and high-frequency sensorineural hearing loss, and by ocular coloboma in some cases. The underlying genetic defect causing otodental syndrome is a hemizygous microdeletion involving the FGF3 gene on chromosome ...
متن کاملInterstitial deletion of chromosome 4, del(4)(q12q21.1), in a child with multiple congenital abnormalities.
Deletions of. the distal region of the long arm of chromosome 4 are well documented and characterised, whereas deletions ofthe proximal region are apparently rare. We report another child with a proximal interstitial deletion of chromosome 4, del(4)(q12q21.1), and multiple congenital anomalies, including bilateral colobomata, which has not previously been described in patients with similar dele...
متن کاملThe 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 کاملRieger syndrome: case report.
Rieger syndrome is a dysembryogenetic disease in which labyrinthic damage can be associated with other genetic anomalies. The case presented here is of a patient who has bilateral dysgenesis of the iris, with bulbar atrophy and dyscoria. The patient does not present any malformation of the craniofacial structures, of the periumbilical skin, or of the skeletal bones. The case is, therefore, a va...
متن کاملChromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (DiGeorge syndrome/velocardiofacial syndrome).
Chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome is a common syndrome also known as DiGeorge syndrome and velocardiofacial syndrome. It occurs in approximately 1:4000 births, and the incidence is increasing due to affected parents bearing their own affected children. The manifestations of this syndrome cross all medical specialties, and care of the children and adults can be complex. Many patients have a m...
