FRONTORHINY

Alternate names

FRONTORHINY Is also known as frontonasal dysplasia type 1, isolated median cleft face syndrome, alx3-related frontonasal dysplasia

Description

Frontorhiny is a distinct syndromic type of frontonasal malformation characterized by hypertelorism, wide nasal bridge, broad columella, widened philtrum, widely separated narrow nares, poor development of nasal tip, midline notch of the upper alveolus, columella base swellings and a low hairline. Additional features reported in some include upper eyelid ptosis and midline dermoid cysts of craniofacial structures and philtral pits or rugose folding behind the ears. An autosomal recessive inheritance has been proposed.

Most common symptoms of FRONTORHINY

  • Scoliosis
  • Hypertelorism
  • Strabismus
  • Cleft palate
  • Cataract

FRONTONASAL DYSPLASIA 1; FND1

Alternate names

FRONTONASAL DYSPLASIA 1; FND1 Is also known as frontonasal malformation, fnm, frontonasal dysplasia, median facial cleft syndrome, frontorhiny, fnd

Description

The term frontonasal dysplasia was coined by Sedano et al. (1970) to describe a constellation of findings limited to the face and head. The disorder is defined as 2 or more of the following: (1) true ocular hypertelorism; (2) broadening of the nasal root; (3) median facial cleft affecting the nose and/or upper lip and palate; (4) unilateral or bilateral clefting of the alae nasi; (5) lack of formation of the nasal tip; (6) anterior cranium bifidum occultum (see {168500}); and (7) a V-shaped or widow's peak frontal hairline (Sedano and Gorlin, 1988). Most reported cases are sporadic, but a few familial cases have been reported.Twigg et al. (2009) characterized frontonasal malformation (FNM) as a 'very heterogeneous group of disorders' and summarized clinical features.Also see acromelic frontonasal dysplasia (AFND ), frontofacionasal dysplasia (FFND ), oculoauriculofrontonasal syndrome (OAFNS ), the acrofrontofacionasal dysostosis syndromes ({201180}, {239710}), and craniofrontonasal syndrome (OMIM ). Genetic Heterogeneity of Frontonasal DysplasiaFrontonasal dysplasia-2 (FND2 ) is caused by mutation in the ALX4 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 11p11. Frontonasal dysplasia-3 (FND3 ) is caused by mutation in the ALX1 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 12q21.

Most common symptoms of FRONTONASAL DYSPLASIA 1; FND1

  • Intellectual disability
  • Short stature
  • Hearing impairment
  • Microcephaly
  • Scoliosis
