MULTIPLE CONGENITAL ANOMALIES-HYPOTONIA-SEIZURES SYNDROME TYPE 2

Alternate names

MULTIPLE CONGENITAL ANOMALIES-HYPOTONIA-SEIZURES SYNDROME TYPE 2 Is also known as epileptic encephalopathy, early infantile, 20, gpibd4, mcahs type 2, glycosylphosphatidylinositol biosynthesis defect 4, eiee20

Description

Multiple congenital anomalies-hypotonia-seizures syndrome type 2 is a rare, genetic, lethal, neurometabolic malformation syndrome characterized by multiple, variable, congenital cardiac (systolic murmur, atrial septal defect), urinary (duplicated collecting system, vesicoureteral reflux) and central nervous system (thin corpus callosum, cerebellar hypoplasia) malformations associated with neonatal hypotonia, early-onset epileptic encephalopathy, and myoclonic seizures. Craniofacial dysmorphism (prominent occiput, enlarged fontanel, fused metopic suture, upslanted palpebral fissures, overfolded helix, depressed nasal bridge, anteverted nose, malar flattening, microstomy with downturned corners, Pierre-Robin sequence, high arched palate, short neck) and other manifestions (joint contractures, hyperreflexia, dysplastic nails, developmental delay) are also observed.

Most common symptoms of MULTIPLE CONGENITAL ANOMALIES-HYPOTONIA-SEIZURES SYNDROME TYPE 2

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

PAROXYSMAL NOCTURNAL HEMOGLOBINURIA

Alternate names

PAROXYSMAL NOCTURNAL HEMOGLOBINURIA Is also known as marchiafava-micheli disease, pnh

Description

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorder characterized by corpuscular hemolytic anemia, bone marrow failure and frequent thrombotic events.

Most common symptoms of PAROXYSMAL NOCTURNAL HEMOGLOBINURIA

  • Muscle weakness
  • Fatigue
  • Dysphagia
  • Abdominal pain
  • Pallor

PAROXYSMAL NOCTURNAL HEMOGLOBINURIA 1; PNH1

Description

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an uncommon acquired hemolytic anemia that often manifests with hemoglobinuria, abdominal pain, smooth muscle dystonias, fatigue, and thrombosis. The disease results from the expansion of hematopoietic stem cells harboring a mutation in the PIGA gene, which encodes a protein required for the biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI), a lipid moiety that attaches dozens of proteins to the cell surface. Thus, PNH cells are deficient in cell surface GPI-anchored proteins. This deficiency on erythrocytes leads to intravascular hemolysis, since certain GPI-anchored proteins (i.e., CD55 (OMIM ) and CD59 (OMIM )) normally function as complement regulators. Free hemoglobin released from intravascular hemolysis leads to circulating nitrous oxide depletion and is responsible for many of the clinical manifestations of PNH, including fatigue, erectile dysfunction, esophageal spasm, and thrombosis (review by Brodsky, 2008). Genetic Heterogeneity of Paroxysmal Nocturnal HemoglobinuriaSee also PNH2 (OMIM ), which may be caused by germline and somatic mutation in the PIGT gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 20q13.

Most common symptoms of PAROXYSMAL NOCTURNAL HEMOGLOBINURIA 1; PNH1

  • Pain
  • Anemia
  • Fatigue
  • Respiratory distress
  • Thrombocytopenia

WEST SYNDROME Is also known as intellectual disability-hypsarrhythmia syndrome, infantile spasm syndrome, x-linked 1, xmesid, west syndrome, x-linked, ohtahara syndrome, x-linked, infantile spasms, infantile epileptic-dyskinetic encephalopathy, issx1

Description

West syndrome (or infantile spasms) is characterised by the association of clusters of axial spasms, psychomotor retardation and an hypsarrhythmic interictal EEG pattern. It is the most frequent type of epileptic encephalopathy. It may occur in otherwise healthy infants and in those with abnormal cognitive development.

Most common symptoms of WEST SYNDROME

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Microcephaly
  • Ataxia

Description

Ferro-cerebro-cutaneous syndrome is a rare, genetic, metabolic liver disease characterized by progressive neurodegeneration, cutaneous abnormalities, including varying degrees of ichthyosis or seborrheic dermatitis, and systemic iron overload. Patients manifest with infantile-onset seizures, encephalopathy, abnormal eye movements, axial hypotonia with peripheral hypertonia, brisk reflexes, cortical blindness and deafness, myoclonus and hepato/splenomegaly, as well as oral manifestations, including microdontia, wiedely spaced and pointed teeth with delayed eruption, and gingival overgrowth.
