TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

Description

Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital cardiac malformation that consists of an interventricular communication, also known as a ventricular septal defect, obstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract, override of the ventricular septum by the aortic root, and right ventricular hypertrophy.

Most common symptoms of TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

  • Growth delay
  • Muscle weakness
  • Cryptorchidism
  • Anemia
  • Brachydactyly

AXENFELD-RIEGER SYNDROME

Alternate names

AXENFELD-RIEGER SYNDROME Is also known as axenfeld syndrome, anterior chamber cleavage syndrome, rieger syndrome, type 3, rieger syndrome, axenfeld-rieger anomaly with cardiac defects and/or sensorineural hearing loss

Description

Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) is a generic term used to designate overlapping genetic disorders, in which the major physical condition is anterior segment dysgenesis of the eye. Patients with ARS may also present with multiple variable congenital anomalies.

Most common symptoms of AXENFELD-RIEGER SYNDROME

  • Hearing impairment
  • Growth delay
  • Hypertelorism
  • Failure to thrive
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment

ANTERIOR SEGMENT DYSGENESIS 3; ASGD3

Alternate names

ANTERIOR SEGMENT DYSGENESIS 3; ASGD3 Is also known as irid1, glaucoma iridogoniodysplasia, familial, iris hypoplasia with glaucoma, igda, iridogoniodysgenesis anomaly, autosomal dominant, iridogoniodysgenesis, type 1

Description

Anterior segment dysgeneses (ASGD or ASMD) are a heterogeneous group of developmental disorders affecting the anterior segment of the eye, including the cornea, iris, lens, trabecular meshwork, and Schlemm canal. The clinical features of ASGD include iris hypoplasia, an enlarged or reduced corneal diameter, corneal vascularization and opacity, posterior embryotoxon, corectopia, polycoria, an abnormal iridocorneal angle, ectopia lentis, and anterior synechiae between the iris and posterior corneal surface (summary by Cheong et al., 2016).Anterior segment dysgenesis is sometimes divided into subtypes including aniridia (see {106210}), Axenfeld and Rieger anomalies, iridogoniodysgenesis, Peters anomaly, and posterior embryotoxon (Gould and John, 2002).Some patients with ASGD3 have been reported with the following subtypes: iridogoniodysgenesis, Peters anomaly, Axenfeld anomaly, and Rieger anomaly.Iridogoniodysgenesis, which is characterized by iris hypoplasia, goniodysgenesis, and juvenile glaucoma, is the result of aberrant migration or terminal induction of the neural crest cells involved in the formation of the anterior segment of the eye (summary by Mears et al., 1996).Peters anomaly consists of a central corneal leukoma, absence of the posterior corneal stroma and Descemet membrane, and a variable degree of iris and lenticular attachments to the central aspect of the posterior cornea (Peters, 1906).In Axenfeld anomaly, strands of iris tissue attach to the Schwalbe line; in Rieger anomaly, in addition to the attachment of iris tissue to the Schwalbe line, there is clinically evident iris stromal atrophy with hole or pseudo-hole formation and corectopia (summary by Smith and Traboulsi, 2012).

Most common symptoms of ANTERIOR SEGMENT DYSGENESIS 3; ASGD3

  • Myopia
  • Glaucoma
  • Cerebellar vermis hypoplasia
  • Ectopia lentis
  • Congenital glaucoma

ISOLATED ANIRIDIA

Alternate names

ISOLATED ANIRIDIA Is also known as an2, formerly, aniridia ii, formerly, an

Description

Isolated aniridia is a congenital bilateral ocular malformation characterized by the complete or partial absence of the iris.

Most common symptoms of ISOLATED ANIRIDIA

  • Intellectual disability
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Hearing impairment
  • Microcephaly

PETERS ANOMALY

Alternate names

PETERS ANOMALY Is also known as peters congenital glaucoma

Description

Peters anomaly (PA) is a congenital corneal opacity disorder characterized by a central corneal leukoma that obstructs the pupil leading to visual loss as well as absence of the posterior corneal stroma and Descemet membrane.

Most common symptoms of PETERS ANOMALY

  • Nystagmus
  • Strabismus
  • Cataract
  • Glaucoma
  • Reduced visual acuity

RIEGER ANOMALY

Description

Rieger's anomaly is a congenital ocular defect caused by anterior segment dysgenesis and is characterized by severe anterior chamber deformity with prominent strands and marked atrophy of the iris stroma, with hole or pseudo-hole formation and corectopia. The term covers the association of these iris and pupil anomalies with the features of Axenfeld?s anomaly (see this term).

AXENFELD ANOMALY

Description

Axenfeld's anomaly is a rare congenital ocular defect caused by anterior segment dysgenesis and is characterized by anteriorly displaced Schwalbe?s line and iris bands extending into the cornea. In contrast, Rieger?s anomaly (see this term) includes characteristic iris and pupil anomalies.
