Published: January 2017

Ectopic nail is defined as the malformation of nail tissue in a location other than the usual nail unit. We present a 12-year-old boy with a single dystrophic thumb nail after an injury. The nail was observed under the original nail and it is linked to the original nail plate by longitudinal bridge formation with parallel growth. According to these clinical findings, the diagnosis of subungual posttraumatic ectopic nail was made.

Alteration in the ubiquitin-proteasome system results in human disorders with neurological and/or autoinflammatory presentation. Haploinsufficiency of PSMD12, which encodes a subunit of the core component of the proteasome, causes Stankiewicz-Isidor syndrome (STISS), characterized by intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, craniofacial dysmorphisms, with or without other congenital anomalies, and autoinflammation. We described six patients (four adults) from two unrelated families carrying a known p.

Background: Inflammatory arthritis encompasses a group of immune-mediated diseases characterized by chronic joint inflammation. Despite having pathogenic mechanisms in common, the prognosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and undifferentiated arthritis (UA) could be different regarding progression to chronic, to erosive, or to self-limited disease. Our aim was to evaluate the potential association of synovial tissue (ST) inflammatory cell infiltrate, the presence of ectopic lymphoid neogenesis (LN +) structures, and poor prognosis factors (PPF) in patients with RA, PsA, and UA.

Article Synopsis
  • WDR35 variants are linked to Cranioectodermal dysplasia (CED), a rare genetic disorder characterized by facial and skeletal abnormalities, growth issues, and other systemic complications.
  • A case report highlights the first Chinese patient with CED caused by WDR35 variants, presenting atypical symptoms such as ectopic testis alongside common CED traits.
  • This case enhances the understanding of the relationship between specific genetic variations (genotype) and observable traits (phenotype) in CED, offering valuable insights for genetic counseling.
