	CIGNA - Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome
		Approximately one third of infants with Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome also demonstrate abnormally decreased activity of the thyroid gland and underproduction of thyroid hormones (hypothyroidism), causing generalized weakness and contributing to growth retardation as well as abnormal delays in the acquisition of skills requiring the coordination of mental and physicial activity (psychomotor retardation).
		Seckel Syndrome is an extremely rare inherited disorder characterized by growth delays prior to birth (intrauterine growth retardation) resulting in low birth weight.
		Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome may be diagnosed at birth or during early childhood based upon a thorough clinical evaluation, characteristic physical findings (e.g., low birth weight and size, distinctive "beak-like" nose, unusual hair pattern, signs of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and malabsorption, anal and genitourinary abnormalities, etc.), and specialized tests.

		In Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome, however, affected individuals lack a sufficient number of properly functioning acinar cells, and pancreatic tissue may be replaced by abnormal accumulations of fat.

	Johanson-Blizzard syndrome
		Johanson-Blizzard syndrome was first described in 1971 and now 29 cases have been described world-wide.
		There is a spectrum of clinical features but the hallmarks of the syndrome are hypoplastic alae nasi, dental anomalies, short stature, microcephaly, mental retardation, hypothyroidism, and deafness.
		As the lifespan continues to increase it is postulated more children with this syndrome will begin to develop pancreatic endocrine insufficiency, as modeled by cystic fibrosis where the pancreatic destruction leads to an eventual decline in islet cell mass.

		Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome is an extremely rare inherited disorder that is transmitted through an autosomal recessive form of inheritance.
		This means that both parents carry the gene and there is a one in four chance of recurrence of the condition in subsequent pregnancies.
		Approximately one third of infants with Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome also demonstrate underproduction of thyroid hormones leading to generalized weakness, which may also contribute to growth retardation as well as abnormal delays in the acquisition of skills requiring the coordination of mental and physical activity.

		This means that each parent carries a gene for the disorder without knowing it; if one of their children inherits this gene from both their mother and their father, he or she will develop the disorder.
		The cause of Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome is thought to be due to a defective gene, but at this time, the gene has yet to be identified.
		Diagnosis of Johanson-Blizzard Syndrome begins with examination of your child’s blood, looking for both the enzymes made by the pancreas and the hormones made by the thyroid gland.

		Syndromes which appeared to crop up more than once included the oto-facio-cervical syndrome, a condition which, it has been argued is allelic with BOR syndrome.
		We saw a convincing example of Oberklaid-Danks syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder (also referred to in the literature as Bohring-Opitz syndrome) where the main features are trigonocephaly with a characteristic haemangioma over the forehead, high (Byzantine) or cleft palate, exophthalmos and unusual contractures of the hands and feet.
		Syndromes that were new to us (or to most of us!) included Heimler Syndrome, a pattern of sensori-neural deafness, enamel hypoplasia and abnormal nails and Iso-Kikuchi Syndrome where there is hypoplasia of the index finger nail transmitted as an autosomal dominant.

		It is a group of heritable disorders causing the hair, teeth, nails and glands to develop and function abnormally.
		An incidental congenital heart defect in a child with Christ-Siemens-Touraine syndrome, for instance, may steer the doctor away from the correct diagnosis unless proper consideration is given to the possibility that the two conditions coexist by coincidence.
		Fourth, the medical literature may be biased and may describe only severely affected individuals or those with unusual findings; as a result, individuals with mild features of a known ED may escape notice or may not be diagnosed promptly.
