Published: September 2008

We report three sibs born to a third degree consanguineous Indian family affected with Bartsocas Papas Syndrome. All the three pregnancies were complicated by severe oligohydramnios, which is not commonly seen with Bartsocas-Papas syndrome.

Proteins which regulate morphogenesis of the epidermis ensure its proper construction and function and mutations or abnormal expression of those proteins impact epidermal function. One recently described protein is Receptor Interacting Serine/Threonine Kinase 4 (RIPK4). Mutations in RIPK4 cause the autosomal-recessive form of Bartsocas-Papas syndrome and Popliteal Pterygium Syndrome the Aslan type.

Bartsocas-Papas syndrome (BPS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by popliteal pterygia, syndactyly, ankyloblepharon, filiform bands between the jaws, cleft lip and palate, and genital malformations. Most of the BPS cases reported to date are fatal either in the prenatal or neonatal period. Causative genetic defects of BPS were mapped on the RIPK4 gene encoding receptor-interacting serine/threonine kinase 4, which is critical for epidermal differentiation and development.

Introduction: Bartsocas-Papas syndrome (BPS) is an autosomal recessive form of Popliteal Pterygium syndrome (PPS). It is a very rare disease characterized by congenital craniofacial anomalies, popliteal webbing, and genitourinary and musculoskeletal anomalies. Almost all of the cases were reported in dead intrauterine pregnancies.

Receptor-interacting protein kinase 4 (RIPK4) is a highly conserved regulator of epidermal differentiation. Members of the RIPK family possess a common kinase domain as well as unique accessory domains that likely dictate subcellular localization and substrate preferences. Mutations in human RIPK4 manifest as Bartsocas-Papas syndrome (BPS), a genetic disorder characterized by severe craniofacial and limb abnormalities.

Background: Ectodermal dysplasias (ED) are a group of diseases that affects the development or function of the teeth, hair, nails and exocrine and sebaceous glands. One type of ED, ankyloblepharon-ectodermal defects-cleft lip/palate syndrome (AEC or Hay-Wells syndrome), is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by the presence of skin erosions affecting the palms, soles and scalp. Other clinical manifestations include ankyloblepharon filiforme adnatum, cleft lip, cleft palate, craniofacial abnormalities and ectodermal defects such as sparse wiry hair, nail changes, dental changes, and subjective hypohydrosis.
