Remarks |
Clinically affected; oligohydramnios; fetal abnormalities noted on ultrasound: shortened long bones, club feet; born term by caesarian section due to suspicion of osteogenesis imperfecta; broad face and nose; cleft palate; mild 'cauliflower' changes of ear cartilage; severe and characteristic kyphoscoliosis= 40 degree rightward curvature thoracic, 30 degree leftward curvature lumbar, 40 degree lumbar lordosis; scoliosis; chest wall is rotationally distorted from clavicle to 12th rib; skeletal dysplasia (short stature); proportionately foreshortened limbs; short, campylodactic fingers; broad thumbs; brachydactyly (toes); genu valgum; talipes equinovalgus (club foot); clubbed toes; significant and symmetric hand weakness (grip strength 2/5) with arm positioning to compensate for weakness, most severe for extensor movements; less evident weakness of lower legs but absent deep tendon reflexes throughout; small atrial septal defect; recurrent pulmonary infection and respiratory insufficiency; gross motor development delayed: sat at 8 months, walked alone at 23 months; cognitive, language, emotional and social development are age-appropriate; exome sequencing revealed novel recessive digenic neuroskeletal disorder caused by pathogenic mutations in two genes: SLC26A2 (diastrophic dysplasia) and SH3CT2 (Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 4C demyelinating peripheral motor-sensory neuropathy) in linkage disequilibrium on chromosome 5; predominant expression of SH3CT2 on plasma membrane and perinuclear endosomes of Schwann cells, also found in spinal cord; surgeries: cleft palate successfully repaired; treated in parallel with myringotomies for two otitis medias with no recurrence; medications: albuterol sulfate, Qvar; family history: brother (not in repository) is also affected with CMT4C and diastrophic dysplasia and has inherited the same gene mutations. |
