Casamassima-Morton-Nance syndrome belongs to the heterogeneous group of spondylocostal dysostoses (SCD) represented by a large heterogeneous group in which diverse diagnoses, associations and modes of inheritance are found. Common features include segmentation abnormalities of the vertebrae and ribs. Here, we report on a fetal case with spondylocostal dysostosis, anal and genitourinary malformations and discuss Casamassima-Morton-Nance syndrome.

Posterior Column Release and Lengthening with a Magnetic Growing Rod Construct in Severe Congenital Thoracic Fusion: A Report of 2 Cases.

Department of Orthopedics, Children's Hospital Colorado, Aurora, Colorado.
Case: We describe treatment of severe multilevel congenital thoracic fusion in a 3-year-old girl with Apert Syndrome by posterior element excision, posterior column osteotomies, and gradual distraction with magnetically controlled growing rods (MCGR) with 3-year follow-up. We also describe short-term follow-up with similar management in an 8-year-old patient with a congenitally fused thoracic spine from Jarcho-Levin syndrome.
Conclusion: Posterior element resection and targeted posterior column osteotomies combined with gradual distraction with MCGR offers a promising treatment course for children with severe thoracic insufficiency syndrome derived from congenital fusions.
Casamassima-Morton-Nance Syndrome and Limb-Body Wall Defect: Presentation of the Second Case and Phenotypic Assessment.

Instituto Tecnológico de Tijuana, Systems and Computing Department, Tijuana, Baja California, México.
Casamassima-Morton-Nance syndrome (CMNS) is a rare disorder characterized by spondylocostal dysostosis (SCD), anal atresia, and urogenital anomalies. We describe a fetus with CMNS associated with a limb-body wall defect (LBWD), the second such case in the literature. We compare the phenotypic differences with previously reported cases, including those with segmentation anomalies of the axial skeleton, body wall defects, or absent/abnormal genitalia, revealing the consistent presence of SCD in CMNS.

Lunatic Fringe (LFNG) is required for spinal development. Biallelic pathogenic variants cause spondylocostal dysostosis type-III (SCD3), a rare disease generally characterized by malformed, asymmetrical, and attenuated development of the vertebral column and ribs. However, a variety of SCD3 cases reported have presented with additional features such as auditory alterations and digit abnormalities.
