Topic: Acrofacial dysostosis Catania form


  
  ORPHANET - About rare diseases - About orphan drugs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29)
Acrofacial dysostoses (AFD) are a heterogenous group of disorders combining defects of limb and mandibular/facial development.
Mandibulofacial dysostosis is of varying severity, depending on the type of AFD.
AFD catania type is a disorder of extremely rare occurrence (less than ten cases worldwide) with mild phenotype.

 TheFetus.net - Post axial acrofacial dysostosis -Philippe Jeanty, MD, PhD
The most common form is preaxial and it is called Nager acrofacial dysostosis.
The postaxial form of acrofacial dysostosis (POADS = postaxial acrofacial dysostosis syndrome) is the Genee-Wiedemann or Miller syndrome.
Etiology: 5 sets of sibs are suggestive of autosomal recessive inheritance[iv],[v] and only 1 occurrence of autosomal dominant postaxial acrofacial dysostosis syndrome is known.

The basis for this theory lies in recognizing that life consists of various forms of information (order) which evolve not only through genetic recombination and mutation, but also through the recombination of organisms within communities (as well as other mechanisms, some of which are considered beyond the realm of biology).
Wild-type fission yeast cells divide by forming a septum in the middle of the cell at the end of mitosis.
In wild-type cells, Dmf1p is nuclear during interphase, and relocates to form a medial ring at the cell cortex coincident with the onset of mitosis.

 Ultrasound Clinical Handbook - Browsing Documents
There are at least 2 conditions that are described as acrofacial dysostoses:- Nager syndrome (preaxial acrofacial dysostosis) and Miller syndrome (also known as Wildervanck-Smith syndrome, Genee-Wiedemann syndrome and postaxial acrofacial dysostosis).
However, there have also been some families reported with vertical transmission, suggesting an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance.In Miller and Nager syndromes the face is similar to that in Treacher-Collins syndrome (mandibulo-facial dysostosis) with zygomatic hypoplasia resulting in downslanting palpebral fissures, lower lid colobomas (in 20% of cases) and absent lower lid eyelashes.
