FREEMAN-SHELDON SYNDROME

Alternate names

FREEMAN-SHELDON SYNDROME Is also known as craniocarpotarsal dystrophy, craniocarpotarsal dysplasia, distal arthrogryposis type 2a, whistling face syndrome

Description

Freeman-Sheldon syndrome (FSS) is a very rare, multiple congenital contractures syndrome characterized by a microstomia with a whistling appearance of the mouth, distinctive facies, club foot and joint contractures. FSS is the most severe form of distal arthrogryposis.

Most common symptoms of FREEMAN-SHELDON SYNDROME

  • Short stature
  • Hearing impairment
  • Scoliosis
  • Growth delay
  • Hypertelorism

ARTHROGRYPOSIS, DISTAL, TYPE 2A; DA2A

Alternate names

ARTHROGRYPOSIS, DISTAL, TYPE 2A; DA2A Is also known as craniocarpotarsal dysplasia, fss, craniocarpotarsal dystrophy, whistling face-windmill vane hand syndrome, freeman-sheldon syndrome

Description

Freeman-Sheldon syndrome (FSS), or DA2A, is phenotypically similar to DA1. In addition to contractures of the hands and feet, FSS is characterized by oropharyngeal abnormalities, scoliosis, and a distinctive face that includes a very small oral orifice (often only a few millimeters in diameter at birth), puckered lips, and an H-shaped dimple of the chin; hence, FSS has been called 'whistling face syndrome.' The limb phenotypes of DA1 and FSS may be so similar that they can only be distinguished by the differences in facial morphology (summary by Bamshad et al., 2009).For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of distal arthrogryposis, see DA1 (OMIM ).

Most common symptoms of ARTHROGRYPOSIS, DISTAL, TYPE 2A; DA2A

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Short stature
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Hearing impairment

SPONDYLOCARPOTARSAL SYNOSTOSIS

Alternate names

SPONDYLOCARPOTARSAL SYNOSTOSIS Is also known as synspondylism, congenital, synspondylism, vertebral fusion with carpal coalition, scoliosis, congenital, with unilateral unsegmented bar, spondylocarpotarsal syndrome

Description

Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis (SCT) syndrome is a skeletal dysplasia clinically characterized by postnatal progressive vertebral fusions frequently manifesting as block vertebrae, contributing to an undersized trunk and a disproportionate short stature, scoliosis, lordosis, carpal and tarsal synostosis, with club feet and a mild facial dysmorphism.

Most common symptoms of SPONDYLOCARPOTARSAL SYNOSTOSIS

  • Short stature
  • Hearing impairment
  • Scoliosis
  • Hypertelorism
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment

DIGITOTALAR DYSMORPHISM

Alternate names

DIGITOTALAR DYSMORPHISM Is also known as ulnar drift, hereditary, da1, distal arthrogryposis type 1, da1a

Description

Digitotalar dysmorphism, also known as distal arthrogryposis type 1 (DA1), is an autosomal dominant congenital anomaly characterized by contractures of the distal regions of the hands and feet with no facial involvement or any additional anomalies. It is the most common type of distal arthrogryposis (see this term).

Most common symptoms of DIGITOTALAR DYSMORPHISM

  • Flexion contracture
  • Talipes equinovarus
  • Narrow mouth
  • Camptodactyly
  • Joint stiffness

SHELDON-HALL SYNDROME

Alternate names

SHELDON-HALL SYNDROME Is also known as arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, distal, type ii, with craniofacial abnormalities, sheldon-hall syndrome, shs, distal arthrogryposis type 2b, fssv, arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, distal, type 2b, freeman-sheldon syndrome variant

Description

Sheldon-Hall syndrome (SHS) is a rare multiple congenital contracture syndrome characterized by contractures of the distal joints of the limbs, triangular face, downslanting palpebral fissures, small mouth, and high arched palate.

Most common symptoms of SHELDON-HALL SYNDROME

  • Short stature
  • Hearing impairment
  • Scoliosis
  • Hypertelorism
  • Micrognathia

ARTHROGRYPOSIS, DISTAL, TYPE 5; DA5

Alternate names

ARTHROGRYPOSIS, DISTAL, TYPE 5; DA5 Is also known as daiib, arthrogryposis, distal, type iib, arthrogryposis with oculomotor limitation and electroretinal abnormalities, oculomelic amyoplasia

Description

Distal arthrogryposis type 5 is distinguished from other forms of DA by the presence of ocular abnormalities, typically ptosis, ophthalmoplegia, and/or strabismus, in addition to contractures of the skeletal muscles. Some cases have been reported to have pulmonary hypertension as a result of restrictive lung disease (summary by Bamshad et al., 2009).There are 2 syndromes with features overlapping those of DA5 that are also caused by heterozygous mutation in PIEZO2: distal arthrogryposis type 3 (DA3, or Gordon syndrome; {114300}) and Marden-Walker syndrome (MWKS ), which are distinguished by the presence of cleft palate and mental retardation, respectively. McMillin et al. (2014) suggested that the 3 disorders might represent variable expressivity of the same condition.For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of distal arthrogryposis, see DA1A (OMIM ). Genetic Heterogeneity of Distal Arthrogryposis 5A subtype of DA5 due to mutation in the ECEL1 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 2q36 has been designated DA5D (OMIM ). See NOMENCLATURE.

Most common symptoms of ARTHROGRYPOSIS, DISTAL, TYPE 5; DA5

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

AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT MULTIPLE PTERYGIUM SYNDROME

Alternate names

AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT MULTIPLE PTERYGIUM SYNDROME Is also known as distal arthrogryposis type 8, multiple pterygium syndrome, autosomal dominant, pterygium syndrome, multiple, autosomal dominant

Description

Autosomal dominant multiple pterygium syndrome is a rare distal arthrogryposis syndrome characterized by multiple pterygia (typically involving the neck, axilla and popliteal areas), joint contractures, ptosis, camptodactyly of the hands with hypoplastic flexion creases, vertebral fusions, severe scoliosis and short stature.

Most common symptoms of AUTOSOMAL DOMINANT MULTIPLE PTERYGIUM SYNDROME

  • Short stature
  • Scoliosis
  • Cleft palate
  • Ptosis
  • Flexion contracture
