Case Report: New phenotype of late-onset Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome due to a C-terminal variant in the gene.

An early diagnosis of Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome is crucial due to its high neonatal lethality and the potential for autonomic dysfunction in children. Herein, we describe a patient with a late-onset, arthrogryposis-like phenotype form of Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome. While most cases result in neonatal complications, our patient only presented with camptodactyly, ulnar deviation of the wrist, and minor facial features at birth, resembling an arthrogryposis-like phenotype.

Skeletal abnormalities, pediatric-onset severe osteoporosis, and multiple fragility fractures in a patient with a novel variant.

We report a case of a patient with a germline heterozygous truncating variant of gene (c.2172del, p.Tyr724Ter) causing neurodevelopmental disorder with spastic diplegia and visual defects syndrome (NEDSDV) associated with a new clinical feature - severe pediatric-onset osteoporosis and multiple fractures.

Presentation of Rare Phenotypes Associated with the Gene.

Pathogenic variants in the gene lead to a spectrum of rare autosomal recessive phenotypes, including osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) Type XI, Bruck syndrome Type I (BS I), and the congenital arthrogryposis-like phenotype (AG), each with variable clinical manifestations that are crucial for diagnosis. This study analyzed the clinical-genetic characteristics of patients with these conditions, focusing on both known and newly identified variants. We examined data from 15 patients, presenting symptoms of OI and joint contractures.

Radiographic and Tomographic Study of the Cranial Bones in Children with the Idiopathic Type of West Syndrome.

Background: Neither radiological phenotypic characteristics nor reconstruction CT scan has been used to study the early anatomical disruption of the cranial bone in children with the so-called idiopathic type of West syndrome.

Material And Methods: The basic diagnostic measures and the classical antiepileptic treatments were applied to these children in accordance with the conventional protocol of investigations and treatment for children with West syndrome. Boys from three unrelated families were given the diagnosis of the idiopathic type of West syndrome, aged 7, 10 and 12 years old.
