Familial occurrence of congenital nephrotic syndrome (CN) has been most extensively studied in Finland where it is known to be inherited as an autosomal recessive disease. In this Finnish type of congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNF) prenatal diagnosis by alphafetoprotein (AFP) determination in the amniotic fluid has been reported to be conclusive. Within the last six years we observed 10 cases of CN occurring in 5 families. In all patients renal histology has been studied. Although each family presented a different type of CN, the appearance within the same sibship was always identical. 相似文献

A very rare case of congenital skin tube pedicle with congenital constriction band syndrome was presented. Only one report concerning this bizarre abnormality could be found in the available literature, and no consideration of its etiology has previously been published. In our case, the skin tube was accompanied by the congenital constriction band syndrome, the cause of which is generally thought to be external factors. Thus the etiology of the congenital skin tube pedicle might be the peeling and rolling of a strip of the fetal skin by external force. 相似文献

Larsen syndrome associated with severe congenital hydrocephalus: Larsen syndrome (LS) is characterized by the association of flattened facies with a prominent forehead, a depressed nasal bridge and hypertelorism, dislocation of hips, elbows and knees, equinovarus or valgus deformities of the feet, long and tapering fingers, normal intelligence. Hydrocephalus has rarely been reported in association with LS. In this article, a newborn infant with the classical features of LS and severe congenital hydrocephalus is presented. Our purpose was to emphasize the importance of congenital hydrocephalus in infants with LS and to highlight the management of cases of LS associated with congenital hydrocephalus. 相似文献

Usher syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease associating congenital sensorineural deafness and retinitis pigmentosa. Two clinical forms have been recognized, namely a) congenital and severe (type I) and b) later and moderate (type II). A linkage of the D1S81 probe (THH 33) with the gene for type II has been recently demonstrated by Kimberling et al. 1990. Here, a panel of 29 individuals from 6 kindreds with Usher syndrome type I has been tested for possible allelism at the D1S81 locus. A negative lod-score was found with this probe and close linkage to this region could be excluded. These different results support the view that the clinical heterogeneity in Usher syndrome is accounted for by an obvious genetic heterogeneity. 相似文献

Despite the availability of rubella vaccine the incidence of the congenital rubella syndrome has been increasing in certain regions of Canada. Perhaps this is not surprising in view of the known irregular cyclic activity of rubella virus in a community and the fact that the percentage of seropositive women of childbearing age has not changed appreciable since the vaccine was introduced. Clearly vaccine is not being administered to sufficient numbers of women at risk. Until a much higher percentage of women of childbearing age possess rubella antibody, the costly problem of congenital rubella syndrome is likely to be with us. Common rubella problems relate to four categories: the exposed pregnant woman, laboratory diagnosis, the infant with suspected congenital rubella and the vaccine. One of the most common questions about the vaccine is the following: Can recently vaccinated individuals disseminate vaccine and infect seronegative contact? The answer is No. 相似文献

Report of a girl with Klippel-feil syndrome and Poland anomaly: Klippel-Feil syndrome, consisting of the triad of a short neck, low posterior hairline, and limitation of neck movement, is a congenital anomaly characterized by the fusion of cervical vertebrae, Poland anomaly consists of unilateral aplasia of the chest wall muscles and ipsilateral anomalies of upper extremity. We report a 7-year-old girl with typical findings of Klippel-Feil syndrome and Poland anomaly. To the best of our knowledge a case of Klippel-Feil syndrome and Poland anomaly has not been described before, although a combination of Poland, Klippel-Feil and Moebius anomalies has been reported in the literature. 相似文献

Congenital immunologic deficiencies and congenital dwarfisms represent two seemingly unrelated disorders. Here is reported the tenth case of a definite congenital and fatal syndrome associating a severe combined immunologic deficiency and a micromelic dwarfism, affecting mainly the proximal limbs, as well as an ichtyosiform and furrowed skin disorder. Although the adenosine deaminase activity has not been determined in this patient, a 4-month old boy, this syndrome seems to be different from cases of ADA negative SCID. The associated impairment of growth and immunity emphasizes once more the close genetic linkage existing between the development of the skeleton and the lymphoid tissue. 相似文献

Congenital heart defects are known to be associated with facial dysmorphism and other congenital anomalies. Oculo-facio-cardio-dental (OFCD) syndrome is one such rare multiple congenital anomaly syndrome inherited as an X-linked dominant condition characterized by congenital cataracts, multiple minor facial dysmorphic features, congenital heart defects and dental anomalies. It is unrecognized by many medical and dental professionals. Only 21 cases have been reported so far. This syndrome is often misrecognized as rubella embryopathy because of association of congenital cataract with cardiac anomalies. It is usually the orthodontists who diagnose the syndrome based on typical findings on dental panoramic radiographs. But we suspected our patient to be having OFCD syndrome based on typical facial dysmorphism, ocular and cardiac defects, and finally it was confirmed after noticing typical dental radiographic findings. 相似文献

Sirenomelia or “mermaid syndrome” is a rare congenital anomaly known since antiquity. This congenital anomaly is defined as a polymalformative syndrome that associates major muscle and skeleton abnormalities (unique lower limbs) with visceral abnormalities (unilateral or bilateral renal agenesis, anomalies of the abdominal vascularisation). This phenotype, typical of sirenomelia syndrome, may be more or less severe. The pathogenic mechanisms of this syndrome are still debated and its etiology remains unknown. We report here a new type of sirenomelia that we observed in a fetus belonging to the collection of the Department of Anatomy of Reims, which led us to perform a comprehensive review of the literature on the subject: this type has never been reported and cannot be classified according to the Stocker and Heifetz classification. Moreover, this case also presents a VACTERL association with Thomas syndrome. Birth Defects Research (Part A) 97:123–132, 2013. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Both congenital pyloric stenosis and the mitral valve prolapse syndrome are reported to have a familial incidence. Although mitral valve prolapse has been documented in twins, only one case has received echocardiographic confirmation. The present account describes typical symptomatic mitral valve prolapse in identical twins, both of whom had undergone surgery during infancy to correct congenital pyloric stenosis. 相似文献

Hirsutism is a clinical condition commonly encountered in the practice of primary care medicine. The etiology and the age of the patient when it occurs vary widely. Causes range from a basic illness or condition (drug exposure, smoking, idiopathic, and obesity) to complex and serious diseases (Cushing's syndrome, neoplasms, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, insulin-resistance syndromes, hyperprolactinemia, polycystic ovary syndrome, and hyperthecosis). Hirsutism may appear in childhood as well as in older persons. Some drugs (oral contraceptives, L-thyroxine, danazol, and diazoxide), tobacco smoke, some syndromes (polycystic ovary syndrome, obesity, insulin resistance, hyperprolactinemia, hyperthecosis, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and idiopathic), and some neoplasms (adrenal or ovarian) may lead to hirsutism. The most frequently defined "causes" of hirsutism are polycystic ovary syndrome and idiopathic hirsutism. In hirsutism of gradual onset, hyperprolactinemia, insulin-resistance syndromes, hyperthecosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, and idiopathic hirsutism may be responsible. Cushing's syndrome, neoplasms, and congenital adrenal hyperplasia should be suspected if there has been rapid onset. 相似文献

We report a case of Wildervanck syndrome exhibiting Klippel–Feil anomaly, Duane''s retraction syndrome and congenital deafness. Since the first case was reported in 1952, there have been more reports describing this triad either complete or incomplete. Our case has a complete triad of the syndrome along with frontal sinus hypoplasia. Our case is unique as the triad was associated with frontal sinus hypoplasia, which is very rare association. 相似文献

Many acquired and familial renal diseases in man lead to kidney dysfunction and nephrotic syndrome. These diseases share a common pathological fate in the form of glomerular dysfunction and proteinuria. Classification of the disease is difficult because the onset of pathological appearance in congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) varies considerably. Recently, classification has been aided by applying molecular genetics to identify genes involved in the pathogenesis of proteinuria. Light has also been shed on the biology and mechanisms of glomerular filtration and the molecular pathogenesis of CNS. 相似文献

Cat eye syndrome is a rare congenital disease characterized by the existence of a supernumerary chromosome derived from chromosome 22, with a variable phenotype comprising anal atresia, coloboma of the iris and preauricular tags or pits. We report a girl with cat eye syndrome, presenting short stature, with growth hormone deficiency due to posterior pituitary ectopia. Short stature is a common feature of this syndrome, and the association with a structural pituitary anomaly has been described, however growth hormone deficiency and the underlying mechanisms are rarely reported. A review on short stature and growth hormone deficiency in cat eye syndrome is conducted. 相似文献

It has been claimed that there is a positive association between the frequency of Down syndrome and the fluoridation of drinking water. It has also been suggested that this association is most pronounced in young women. Recent congenital malformations data obtained from birth certificates from large U.S. cities have been analyzed. Some cities had fluoridated water supplies, while others had supplies deficient in fluoride. The rates of Down syndrome in the cities with fluoridated and in those with non-fluoridated water supplies were comparable. In addition, there was no indication of any maternal age-specific association. 相似文献

Craniofacial morphology in the velo-cardio-facial syndrome 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
M Arvystas R J Shprintzen 《Journal of craniofacial genetics and developmental biology》1984,4(1):39-45
The velo -cardio-facial syndrome is a recently delineated congenital malformation syndrome, probably of autosomal dominant inheritance. Previous reports have concentrated on facial, oropharyngeal, cardiac, speech, language, and psychological features of this fairly common syndrome. To date, no radiographic data have been presented which might help to further delineate the syndrome, nor has there been an explanation of the characteristic facial appearance seen in this syndrome. This current study reports on cephalometric evidence of platybasia (obtuse angulation of the cranial base) in the velo -cardio-facial syndrome. The finding of platybasia adds one more phenotypic feature to the syndrome and also may help to explain the facial features of retrognathia, malar flatness, and prominence of the nasal root. 相似文献

The etiology of congenital scoliosis is largely unknown. The severe vertebral disorder, spondylocostal dysostosis type 1, is associated with a homozygous delta-like 3 (DLL3) mutation. Scoliosis has been observed in a heterozygous DLL3 carrier, raising the possibility of its involvement in congenital scoliosis. We present the first molecular study of congenital scoliosis by analysis of the candidate gene DLL3 and demonstrate one novel missense variant. However, no novel or previously described mutations are present in our cohort, indicating that DLL3 mutations may not be a major cause of congenital scoliosis. Additionally, we have evaluated patients with congenital scoliosis not diagnosed with a known syndrome and identified a significant number of associated renal and cardiac anomalies and familial incidence of idiopathic scoliosis in this group. 相似文献

The complete developmental expression pattern of the cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor (CDKI) p57(kip2) has not been reported, here we report a detailed study of the localization of p57(kip2) protein during mouse organogenesis. We show that p57(kip2) is coincident with key stages of differentiation of several organs, some but not all of which are affected in Beckwith-Weidermann syndrome, a human congenital syndrome characterized by foetal overgrowth and childhood tumours. 相似文献
