WAGR SYNDROME

Alternate names

WAGR SYNDROME Is also known as del(11)(p13), chromosome 11p13 deletion syndrome, wilms tumor-aniridia-genitourinary anomalies-intellectual disability syndrome, monosomy 11p13, deletion 11p13, wagr syndrome

Description

WAGR syndrome (Wilms tumor - aniridia - genitourinary anomalies - intellectual disability mental retardation) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by an unusual complex of congenital developmental abnormalities with intellectual disability, and an increased risk of developing Wilms tumor.

Most common symptoms of WAGR SYNDROME

  • Intellectual disability
  • Short stature
  • Microcephaly
  • Scoliosis
  • Nystagmus

ONDINE SYNDROME

Alternate names

ONDINE SYNDROME Is also known as congenital central alveolar hypoventilation syndrome, autonomic control, congenital failure of, central congenital hypoventilation syndrome, ondine curse, congenital, cchs, ondine curse

Description

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare disease due to a severely impaired central autonomic control of breathing and dysfunction of the autonomous nervous system. The incidence is estimated to be at 1 of 200 000 livebirths. A heterozygous mutation of PHOX-2B gene is found in 90% of the patients. Association with a Hirschsprung's disease is observed in 16% of the cases. Despite a high mortality rate and a lifelong dependence to mechanical ventilation, the long-term outcome of CCHS should be ultimately improved by multidisciplinary and coordinated follow-up of the patients.

Most common symptoms of ONDINE SYNDROME

  • Seizures
  • Strabismus
  • Muscular hypotonia
  • Pain
  • Low-set ears

BULIMIA NERVOSA, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO; BULN

Alternate names

BULIMIA NERVOSA, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO; BULN Is also known as bn

Description

Bulimia nervosa (BN) is a psychiatric disorder characterized by episodes of binge-eating (eating an unusually large amount of food in a discrete period of time and feeling out of control), compensatory behavior (e.g., self-induced vomiting or laxative abuse), and over-concern with weight and shape.Eating disorders such as bulimia nervosa are complex disorders that can be influenced by many genes.

Most common symptoms of BULIMIA NERVOSA, SUSCEPTIBILITY TO; BULN

  • Vomiting
  • Bulimia
