Oral-facial-digital syndrome type 1 (OMIM #311200) is an X-linked dominant, developmental disorder. Among the 13 described clinical variants of oral-facial-digital syndrome, oral-facial-digital syndrome type 1 is of significance to dermatologists due to presence of congenital milia and hypotrichosis, not described in other variants. Since oral-facial-digital syndrome type 1 is genetically a distinct entity, awareness of these features help to clinically delineate this from other variants.

Introduction: Pathogenic variants in the gene are linked to a spectrum of syndromes that exhibit partial clinical overlap. Hemizygous loss-of-function variants are considered lethal in males, while heterozygous loss-of-function variants generally result in oro-facial-digital syndrome type 1. A reported phenotype, Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome type 2, was published once but remains controversial, with many specialists questioning its validity and arguing about its continued listing in the OMIM database.

Background: Kidney transplantation is the gold standard treatment for end-stage kidney disease in children. Rare genetic systemic diseases associated with cystic kidney disease such as COL4A1-related disorder and oral facial digital syndrome type 1 could contribute to end-stage kidney disease in the pediatric population but there is scarce evidence in the literature regarding kidney transplant outcomes in these cases.
Case Presentation: We report a case of a 5-year-old male with COL4A1-related disorder who received a living-related donor kidney transplant from his mother.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of combining orthognathic surgery with staged patient-specific implants (PSIs) for comprehensive craniofacial asymmetry reconstruction in adult patients with hemifacial microsomia (HFM).
Methods: Six adults with HFM (1 Type I and 5 Type IIa) underwent orthognathic surgery to correct skeletal malocclusion and chin deviation. Sequential PSIs were implanted to address craniofacial asymmetry.

Cilia are essential organelles and variants in genes governing ciliary function result in ciliopathic diseases. The Ciliogenesis and PLANar polarity Effectors (CPLANE) protein complex is essential for ciliogenesis in animals models but remains poorly defined. Notably, all but one subunit of the CPLANE complex have been implicated in human ciliopathy.
