We describe a growth-retarded newborn infant with craniosynostosis, microcephaly, hydrancephaly, oligodactyly, humero-radial synostosis, and normal chromosomes. The combination of anomalies has hitherto been unreported and we consider this to be a "new" syndrome.

We encountered two affected male patients born to non-consanguineous parents, who presented with prenatal-onset severe growth impairment, primary microcephaly, developmental delay, adrenal insufficiency, congenital glaucoma, delayed bone aging, craniosynostosis, congenital tracheal stenosis, and primary hypogonadism. By exome sequencing, we identified compound heterozygous TEDC1 variants (NM_001134877.1 c.

Heterozygous deleterious null alleles and specific missense variants in the DNA-binding domain of the ETS2 repressor factor (ERF) cause craniosynostosis, while the recurrent p.(Tyr89Cys) missense variant is associated with Chitayat syndrome. Exome and whole transcriptome sequencing revealed the ERF de novo in-frame indel c.

Introduction: Galloway-Mowat syndrome type 3 (GAMOS3) is a rare genetic disorder with renal and neurological complications caused by pathogenic variants in the OSGEP gene. Here, we report the molecular basis and clinical features in an Iranian family.
Methods: Our proband, a 10-month-old female patient, presented with microcephaly, global developmental delay, lower limb spasticity, facial dysmorphisms, and renal tubulopathy.

Noonan syndrome and related disorders are a group of well-known genetic conditions caused by dysregulation of the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (RAS/MAPK) pathway. Because of the overlap of clinical and molecular features, they are now called RASopathies. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 121 patients with a molecularly confirmed diagnosis of RASopathy, describing frequencies for clinical features in all organ systems as well as molecular data.

Cranial vault reconstructions are a common craniofacial procedure utilized to treat chronically elevated intracranial pressure and its sequelae for children with craniosynostosis. These surgeries often involve split-thickness autologous grafts to facilitate intracranial volume expansion. The hinge craniotomy was developed by neurosurgeons in the early 2000s as an alternative to the hemicraniectomy to allow for greater space and simplified re-securing of the bone flap.
