Vohwinkel syndrome, ichthyosiform variant--by Camisa--case report.

ABSTRACT: Vohwinkel syndrome or keratoderma hereditaria mutilans is a rare autosomal dominant palmoplantar keratosis, which manifests in infants and becomes more evident in adulthood. Its mode of inheritance is autosomal dominant with mutation in loricrin and Connexin 26 genes. Patients with this mutation present hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles, constricting bands of the digits, usually on the fifth, and starfish-shaped hyperkeratosis on the dorsal aspects of the hands and feet. The disease mostly occurs in white women, where constricting fibrous bands appear on the digits and can lead to progressive strangulation and auto-amputation (pseudo-ain-hum).The authors report a rare case of a patient with a clinical ichthyosiform variant of Vohwinkel syndrome.

Gingival Enlargement in a Case of Variant Jones Syndrome: a Case Report.

Project description:Gingival enlargement can be caused by a variety of etiological factors like inflammation, drugs, and systemic diseases or can be presented as a part of a syndrome. One such syndrome is Jones Syndrome, which is associated with gingival enlargement and progressive hearing loss. We present here a case of fifteen-year-old boy with gingival enlargement, hearing loss, and generalized alveolar bone loss and diagnosed as Jones syndrome. The diagnosis was made based on history, clinical, radiographic, and histopathological findings. Gingival enlargement was surgically managed using gingivectomy and no recurrence was observed. The patient showed remarkable esthetical and functional improvement.

A novel variant of Paganini-Miozzo syndrome: a case report.

Project description:Paganini-Miozzo syndrome (MRXSPM) is a rare neurogenetic disorder that is transmitted by X-linked recessive inheritance. This is the third case reported of this disease in the world with a novel variant. A boy was referred due to the absence of neck holding and hand tremors. The examinations found facial anomalies. The brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed cerebral atrophy and diffused white matter, and irregularities were seen in his electroencephalogram (EEG). The echocardiography revealed a mid-muscular ventricular septal defect. A whole exome sequencing (WES) analysis revealed a novel variant (c.979C > T; p.Pro327Ser) of uncertain significance in the HS6ST2 gene indicating Paganini-Miozzo syndrome. The current case provides additional evidence that MRXSPM can be associated with various neurological and cardiac complications. It is essential to rule out other causes, such as metabolic and infectious diseases. EEG, MRI and WES analyses can help to make a definitive diagnosis.

Complete transcatheter correction of variant scimitar syndrome-a case report.

Project description:BackgroundScimitar syndrome (SS) comprises of an anomalously draining right pulmonary vein (APV), to the inferior vena cava (IVC), maldevelopment of the right pulmonary artery (RPA), and the right lung, with variable number of aorto-pulmonary collaterals (APC) to the right lung. It can cause pulmonary hypertension if left untreated. Surgical correction is the method of choice. We report a case of variant SS with dual drainage of the APV to the IVC and left atrium (LA) that was addressed with a transcatheter approach.Case summaryA 13-year-old child was evaluated for dyspnoea. Chest x-ray and transthoracic echo (TTE) were suggestive of SS with an additional central atrial septal defect (ASD). Cardiac computed tomography (CT) revealed dual drainage of the APV to the IVC and via a meandering vein to the LA and three APCs. The ASD was closed, and the APCs were coiled. The connection of the APV to the IVC was closed with a device, rerouting the pulmonary vein blood to the LA. The child is doing well on follow-up after 2 years.DiscussionVariant forms of SS are rare. Our case had ASD, multiple APCs, well-developed RPA and right lung and a dual drainage of the APV. This allowed for transcatheter management. Otherwise, surgery is the default choice. Multimodality imaging with TTE, CT, magnetic resonance imaging, and cardiac catheterization will help in diagnosis and anatomical delineation.

A novel GABRB3 variant in Dravet syndrome: Case report and literature review.

Project description:BackgroundMutations in GABRB3 have been identified in subjects with different types of epilepsy and epileptic syndromes, including West syndrome (WS), Dravet syndrome (DS), Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), myoclonic-atonic epilepsy (MAE), and others.Methods and resultsWe herewith report on a girl affected by DS, who has been followed from infancy to the current age of 18 years. Next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based genetic testing for multigene analysis of neurodevelopmental disorders identified two likely de novo pathogenic mutations, a missense variant in GABRB3 gene (c.842 C>T; p.Thr281IIe) and a nonsense variant found in BBS4 gene (c.883 C>T; p.Arg295Ter).ConclusionA likely relationship between the novel GABRB3 gene variant and the clinical manifestations presented by the girl is proposed. Previously, one case of DS and two of DS-like linked with GABRB3 mutations have been reported. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of DS associated with this novel variant. A literature review of clinical cases with various types of epileptic encephalopathies (EEs) related to GABRB3 mutations is reported.

A Case Report of Cardiofaciocutaneous Syndrome with <i>MAP2K1</i> Pathogenic Variant.

Project description:Craniofacial dysmorphism, cardiac abnormalities, ectodermal abnormalities, psychomotor delay, intellectual disability, and short stature are all hallmarks of the extremely rare disorder known as cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFCS). Although CFCS is considered rare, approximately 300 cases have been documented in the literature. In this report, we discuss a patient diagnosed with CFCS without the typical heart malformations but with craniofacial features, skin abnormalities, intellectual disability, and short stature. Genetic testing revealed the presence of three potentially harmful variants: one in the MAP2K1 gene and two in the ATP2B3 and CDC42BPB genes, the significance of which is currently not yet found. Our findings in this case report suggest that the clinical symptoms of CFCS may be atypical, thereby expanding our understanding of the symptom spectrum of the disease. Simultaneously, the link between the clinical symptoms of the patient and the two unknown pathogenic variants has not been established. This case report supplements existing clinical reference material by providing valuable insights into the specific scenario.

A Case of Mild Trichohepatoenteric Syndrome With New Variant Mutation in SKIV2L Gene: Case Report.

Project description:Trichohepatoenteric syndrome (THES) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disease characterized by severe early onset diarrhea, woolly and brittle hair, immunodeficiency, and liver disease. A mutation in either SKIV2L or TTC37 genes can cause the disease. We report a case of a 41-month-old girl who suffered from intractable watery diarrhea, hair abnormality, dysmorphic features, and poor weight gain. The diagnosis was made through whole-exome sequencing analysis. The analysis detected a new variant mutation (c.1201G > A) p. (Glu401Lys) in the SKIV2L gene. She was admitted once for poor weight gain and nasogastric tube (NGT) feeding, with which the patient showed improvement. She was discharged to go home on hypoallergenic baby formulas and a regular diet with improved weight gain.

Case Report: Denys–Drash Syndrome With WT1 Causative Variant Presenting as Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome

Project description:The WT1 variant is confirmed to be pathogenic for Denys–Drash syndrome (DDS), a rare disorder characterized by early-onset nephrotic syndrome and renal failure, pseudo-hermaphroditism, and a high risk of Wilms' tumor. Several cases of DDS presenting with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) have been reported. Here we report the case of a 2-year-old child who was diagnosed with WT1 missense variant, associated with DDS and initial presentation of aHUS. Complement factor H autoantibodies were negative. Complement regulatory system-related gene variants were not found, but a de novo heterozygous c.754G>A missense variant in exon 9 of WT1 gene was detected, resulting in a p. Asp252Asn substitution, by next-generation sequencing. The patient was a female morphologically but proved to be a genetic male because of karyotype 46, XY with normally developed female external genitalia. Bilateral nephrectomy and renal transplantation were performed 1 year later, and there was no recurrence of aHUS at 10 months after transplantation.

Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome with a novel pathogenic variant in KMT2A: a case report.

Project description:Case descriptionWe report the case of a one-year-old girl who was diagnosed with Wiedemann-Steiner Syndrome based on the identification of a novel de novo frameshift mutation in the KMT2A gene by whole exome sequencing and supported by her clinical features.Clinical findingsKMT2A mutations cause Wiedemann-Steiner Syndrome, a very rare genetic disorder characterized by congenital hypertrichosis, short stature, intellectual disability, and distinct facial features.Treatment and outcomeWhole exome sequencing identified a novel frameshift variant: c. 4177dupA (p.Ile1393Asnfs * 14) in KMT2A; this change generates an alteration of the specific binding to non-methylated CpG motifs of the DNA to the protein. The genotype and phenotype of the patient were compared with those of earlier reported patients in the literature.Clinical relevanceIn diseases with low frequency, it is necessary to establish a genotype-phenotype correlation that allows the establishment of therapeutic and follow-up goals. The phenotype comparation with other reported cases did not show differences attributable to sex or age among patients with Wiedemann-Steiner Syndrome. Whole exome sequencing allows identifying causality in conditions with high clinical and genetic heterogeneity like hypertrichosis.

O'Donnel-Luria-Rodan Syndrome: New gene variant identified in Romania (A case report).

Project description:O'Donnel-Luria-Rodan (ODLURO) syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder with autosomal dominant inheritance. It appears more frequently in males during the first decade of life and is associated with developmental delay, low intelligence quotient, autism spectrum disorder-like behavior, epilepsy, speech delay, aggression, facial and skeletal deformities, gastrointestinal symptoms and hypotonia. Although few cases have been documented, it appears that the phenotype spectrum may vary, especially between the two biological sexes. The present study reported a case of a 5-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with ODLURO at the age of 4 years using whole-exome sequencing. Molecular analysis identified a new mutation in the lysine methyltransferase 2E (inactive) (KMT2E) gene, which was classified as a variant with unknown significance. The father, who presented with non-specific and undiagnosed psychiatric manifestations, presented the same KMT2E variant. The case described in the present study is not only interesting because there are <40 cases described in the literature, but also because a new inherited mutation in the KMT2E gene, present in both father and son, that resulted in different phenotypic manifestations was identified.
