CUTIS LAXA, AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE, TYPE IB; ARCL1B

Description

Autosomal recessive cutis laxa type IB (ARCL1B) is characterized by the presence of severe systemic connective tissue abnormalities, including emphysema, cardiopulmonary insufficiency, birth fractures, arachnodactyly, and fragility of blood vessels. All symptoms refer to disturbed elastic fiber formation (summary by Hoyer et al., 2009).For a complete phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of autosomal recessive cutis laxa, see ARCL1A (OMIM ).

Most common symptoms of CUTIS LAXA, AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE, TYPE IB; ARCL1B

  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Microcephaly
  • Hypertelorism
  • Micrognathia
  • Abnormal facial shape

AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE CUTIS LAXA TYPE 1

Alternate names

AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE CUTIS LAXA TYPE 1 Is also known as arcl1, autosomal recessive cutis laxa with severe systemic involvement, cutis laxa, autosomal recessive, autosomal recessive cutis laxa, pulmonary emphysema type

Description

Autosomal recessive cutis laxa, type 1 (ARCL1) is a generalized connective tissue disorder characterized by the association of wrinkled, redundant and sagging inelastic skin with severe systemic manifestations (lung atelectesias and emphysema, vascular anomalies, and gastrointestinal and genitourinary tract diverticuli).

Most common symptoms of AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE CUTIS LAXA TYPE 1

  • Intellectual disability
  • Global developmental delay
  • Hearing impairment
  • Microcephaly
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment

LETHAL ARTERIOPATHY SYNDROME DUE TO FIBULIN-4 DEFICIENCY

Description

Lethal arteriopathy syndrome due to fibulin-4 deficiency is a rare, genetic, vascular disorder characterized by severe aneurysmal dilatation, elongation, and tortuosity of the thoracic aorta, its branches and pulmonary arteries with stenosis at various typical locations, typically resulting in infantile demise. Variable associated features may include cutis laxa, long philtrum with thin vermillion border, hypertelorism, sagging cheeks, arachnodactyly, joint laxity and pectus deformities.
