abstract

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.

A genetic Assay of Three Patients in the Same Family with Holt-Oram Syndrome; a Case Report

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 ...

A 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...

Holt-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...

Holt-Oram syndrome (case report).

The Holt–Oram syndrome or atriodigital dysplasia is an autosomal dominant disorder with near complete penetrance and variable expression, caused by mutations of the TBX5 gene (12q24.1), affecting one in 100 000 live births. 60% of cases are familial and 40% sporadic. We present the case of a 8 months old male patient presented with respiratory problem .Patient had characteristic right sided han...

Holt-Oram syndrome--a case report.

Holt-Oram syndrome is clinically characterized by morphological abnormalities of the upper limbs and congenital cardiac defects. Although the disease is congenital, the diagnosis may only be made later in life. It is a rare autosomal dominant disorder, caused by a mutation in the TBX5 gene located on chromosome 12, but sporadic cases have also been reported. We describe the case of a 75-year-ol...
