Introduction: Congenital aniridia is increasingly recognized as part of a complex syndrome with numerous ocular developmental anomalies and non-ocular systemic manifestations. This requires comprehensive care and treatment of affected patients. Our purpose was to analyze systemic diseases in patients with congenital aniridia within the Homburg Aniridia Registry.

Objective: Intraventricular baclofen (IVB) administration is used for the treatment of secondary dystonia associated with cerebral palsy (CP), but it has not been reported as a first-line infusion technique for spasticity. In this study, the authors report outcomes of patients with mixed or isolated spasticity treated with IVB administration.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed of consecutive patients treated with IVB between 2019 and 2023.

Amniotic fluid (AF)-derived exosomal miRNA have been explored as potential contributors to the pathogenesis of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). This study aimed to investigate the expression profiles of AF-derived exosomal miRNAs and their potential contribution to TOF development. Exosomes were isolated from AF samples obtained from pregnant women carrying fetuses diagnosed with TOF.

Objective: To investigate the exome sequencing (ES) detection rate among fetuses with congenital anomalies and describe the rates in the setting of multiple versus isolated anomalies, perinatal autopsy, and family history of a previously affected child.
Methods: A single-center retrospective chart review was conducted on 397 anomalous fetuses that underwent ES from May 2012 through December 2023. Medical record review included demographics, imaging, and genetic testing.

We report two cases of end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy as the initial manifestation of Alström syndrome (ALMS), in infants aged two and five months. This rare monogenic, autosomal, and recessive genetic condition is a multisystem disorder characterized by visual and hearing impairment, cardiomyopathy childhood obesity, and other anomalies. These cases highlight the importance of genetic testing targeting the ALMS1 gene in the assessment of apparently isolated dilated cardiomyopathy.
