A genetic assay of three patients in the same family with Holt-Oram syndrome; a case report.

چکیده
Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS) is a developmental disorder inherited in an autosomal-dominant pattern. Affected organs are the heart and forelimbs with upper extremity skeletal defects and congenital heart malformation. In this study we present three cases of HOS in the same family. In one of these three individuals we detected a transition of C to T (CTG-GTT, V205V) in exon 7 of the TBX5 gene. This nucleotide change causes no amino acid change and potential pathologic effects remain unknown.

متن کاملA Case of Holt - Oram Syndrome
SUMMARY Holt Oram Syndrome consisting of upper limb defcts, cardiac anomalies and narrow shoulder, was first described by Holt and Oram in 1960. The inheritance pattern is autosomal dominant and most commonly encoutered cardiac anomalies being ASD, although all variaties of C.H.D are reported. Upper limb anomalies are not specific, although scaphoid bone deformity is almost characteristic in t...
متن کاملHolt-Oram Syndrome: A Rare Variant
Holt-Oram syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder, characterised by skeletal abnormalities of the upper limb associated with congenital heart defect, mainly atrial and ventricular septal defects. Skeletal defects exclusively affect the upper limbs in the preaxial radial ray distribution and are bilateral and asymmetrical. They range from clinodactyly, absent or digitalised thumb, hypoplastic...
متن کاملHolt-Oram syndrome revisited. Two patients in the same family.
Holt-Oram syndrome was first described in 1960 as an association of familial heart disease and musculoskeletal abnormalities. The most important findings include atrial septal defects, atrioventricular conduction abnormalities, vascular hypoplasia, and upper limb musculoskeletal deformities. We report two patients with this syndrome in the same family and discuss the variability of the musculos...
متن کاملPerinatal/neonatal case presentation: unexpected severe respiratory insufficiency in a newborn with Holt-Oram Syndrome.
Holt-Oram syndrome is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by skeletal and cardiac defects. Pulmonary malformation is not reported to belong to the spectrum of this condition. We report a second case of a newborn with Holt-Oram syndrome who developed severe respiratory insufficiency shortly after birth. We discuss possible genetic links between abnormal pulmonary morphogenesis and Holt...
