Co-occurrence of Moyamoya syndrome and Kartagener syndrome caused by the mutation of DNAH5 and DNAH11: a case report.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Kartagener syndrome is an autosomal recessive inherited disorder of primary ciliary dyskinesia. Moyamoya syndrome refers to a moyamoya angiopathy associated with other neurological and/or extra-neurological symptoms, or due to a well identified acquired or inherited cause. We herein reported a case of a 48-year-old woman who was favored the diagnosis of Kartagener syndrome and moyamoya syndrome. The whole genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis showed a homozygotic nonsense mutation in the dynein, axonemal, heavy chain (DNAH) 5 gene, and heterozygotic missense mutation in the DNAH11 gene. This is the first report of the co-occurrence of the two rare diseases. CASE PRESENTATION:A case of a 48-year-old woman was presented with hemiplegia and slurred speech. The magnetic resonance imaging of the brain confirmed acute cerebral infarction in the right basal ganglia region, semi-oval center, insular lobe, and frontal parietal lobe. The electrocardiogram showed inverted "P" waves in L1 and AVL on left-sided chest leads and computed tomography scan of the chest showed bronchiectasis changes, cardiac shadow and apex on the right side, and situs inversus of aortic arch position. The digital subtraction angiography showed inversion of the aortic arch, and bilateral internal carotid arteries are occluded from the ophthalmic segment. The clinical, radiological, and laboratory findings made the diagnosis of Kartagener syndrome and moyamoya syndrome. The whole genome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis showed a homozygotic nonsense mutation in DNAH5 gene, and heterozygotic missense mutation in the DNAH11 gene. CONCLUSION:The combined mutation of DNAH5 and DNAH11 may lead to the overlapping dysfunction of motile and nonmotile cilia, which contribute to the co-occurrence of Kartagener syndrome and moyamoya syndrome. Our report deserves further confirm by more case reports.

Project description:BackgroundKartagener syndrome is a subtype of primary ciliary dyskinesia that may exhibit various symptoms including neonatal respiratory distress and frequent infections of the lung, sinus and middle ear because of the impaired function of motile cilia. In addition to typical symptoms of primary ciliary dyskinesia, patients with Kartagener syndrome also show situs inversus. It is an autosomal recessive disorder which is mostly caused by mutations in DNAH5. Kartagener syndrome is often underdiagnosed due to challenges in the diagnosis process. As next-generation sequencing becomes widely used in clinical laboratories, genetic testing provides an accurate approach to the diagnosis of Kartagener syndrome.Case presentationA 7-year-old female patient presented with runny nose of 6 years duration and recurrent cough with phlegm of 2 years duration. Kartagener syndrome was diagnosed through diagnostic tests such as nasal nitric oxide (NO) concentration and transmission electron microscopy, and after performing other exams that corroborated the diagnosis, such as computed tomography, bronchoscopy and hearing test. Whole-exome sequencing was performed for the patient and both parents. The pediatric patient was diagnosed as Kartagener syndrome with the typical symptoms of ciliary dyskinesia including bronchiectasis, sinusitis, conductive hearing loss and situs inversus along with a reduced nasal NO concentration and ciliary abnormalities. The patient carried two novel compound heterozygous mutations in DNAH5, NM_001369:c.12813G > A (p. Trp4271Term) and NM_001369:c.9365delT (p. Leu3122Term). Both mutations lead to premature stop codons and thus are pathogenic. The p. Trp4271Term and p. Leu3122Term mutations were inherited from the father and the mother of the patient individually. A literature review was also conducted to summarize DNAH5 mutations in pediatric patients with Kartagener syndrome across different ethnic groups.ConclusionsOur study provides a good example of the diagnosis of Kartagener syndrome in pediatric patients using a series of diagnostic tests combined with genetic testing. Two novel loss-of-function mutations in DNAH5 were identified and validated in a pediatric patient with Kartagener syndrome.

Project description:ObjectiveNoonan syndrome (NS), an autosomal dominant disease known as a RASopathy, is caused by germline mutations in mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway genes. A RIT1 gene mutation has been found to cause NS. The present study summarizes RIT1 gene mutation sites and associated clinical phenotypes.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical characteristics of a case of NS caused by RIT1 mutation in our hospital, and searched the PubMed database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database and Wanfang database with the keywords Noonan syndrome and RIT1. Studies published between May 1, 2014 and July 1, 2021 were retrieved. By reviewing the abstracts and full text of the studies, we screened NS cases associated with RIT1 mutation in children 0-18 years of age. The clinical characteristics of these cases were summarized.ResultsA total of 41 cases were analyzed, including 13 boys and 28 girls. There were 14 premature cases. The age at diagnosis was 4 days to 18 years, and 10 cases were diagnosed at 0-1 years of age. Common amino acid substitution positions included 57 (13/41), 95 (7/41), 82 (8/41), and 90 (4/41). A total of 63.63% cases had abnormal prenatal examination results, manifesting mainly as fetal neck edema, polyhydramnios and cardiac malformation. With respect to abnormal conditions after birth, 70-80% of patients had typical developmental malformations of the face, neck and thorax; 19/35 patients had abnormal lymphatic development; and a portion of patients had short stature and motor development disorders. A total of 87.80% (36/41) patients had cardiac dysplasia, among which hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) accounted for 58.53%. A total of 84.62% of patients carrying the p.A57G mutation had HCM, but no HCM was found in patients with the p.G95A mutation. A total of 34.15% of patients had pulmonary artery or pulmonary valve stenosis (PVS). In patients with the p.M90I mutation, 75% had PVS. Patients with concurrent HCM and PVS accounted for 19.51 and 48.78% of patients had supraventricular tachycardia.ConclusionA RIT1 gene mutation causing NS was associated with a high rate of abnormal prenatal examination findings. Most patients had typical NS craniofacial deformities, and some have short stature and motor development disorders. The cardiac deformity rate was high, and HCM was common. Some patients had supraventricular arrhythmias. Heart abnormalities showed high heterogeneity, given the various mutation loci.
