Presentation
The goal of this book is to present steps in the pathways of exploration to connect genotype to phenotype and to consider how alterations in genomes impact disease. [books.google.com]
We herein report on a patient with anauxetic dysplasia, who presented with severe roto-scoliosis and skeletal findings requiring surgical intervention, and in whom a homozygous RMRP mutation was detected. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We discuss the past and present knowledge about the function of the RMRP complex in skeletal development. [eprints.whiterose.ac.uk]
We present a series of fifteen patients with different forms of skeletal dysplasias with age ranged from 6 to 17 years with variable clinical presentations managed as a part of the project of scientific cooperation between Turner Paediatric Orthopaedic [doaj.org]
Mild intellectual disability may also be present. [orpha.net]
Entire Body System
- Asymptomatic
According to previous evaluations, heterozygotes (carriers) are not at increased risk for cancer and are asymptomatic [ Mäkitie et al 1999 ]. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Patients may have severe combined immunodeficiency, requiring bone marrow transplantation or they may be asymptomatic. Gastrointestinal dysfunctions are frequently observed such as mal-absorption or Hirschsprung's disease. [atlasgeneticsoncology.org]
Patients may have a severe combined immunodeficiency requiring bone marrow transplantation or they may be asymptomatic [Castigli et al., 1995; Makitie et al., 1998]. [karger.com]
- Surgical Procedure
Another disorder is known as rachitis fetalis micromelica in which there is a deficiency in the growth of the bones, there is a surgical procedure called distraction osteogenesis which is used to lengthen long bones. [wikivisually.com]
The girl underwent staged surgical procedures aimed to the joint realignment and axial correction in OHS. [cyberleninka.ru]
- Developmental Disorder
A sonographic algorithm was proposed to distinguish SWS from other bent bone disorders. [scinapse.io]
Gastrointestinal
- Failure to Thrive
OS is also commonly accompanied by enlarged lymphoid tissues, protracted diarrhea, failure to thrive, and eosinophilia. [en.wikipedia.org]
The main findings are "celiac syndrome" with diarrhea and failure to thrive. Although most intestinal manifestations occur in the first two years of life, they can occur later in childhood. Intestinal problems have not been described in AD or MDWH. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Gastrointestinal dysfunction: This can present with signs of malabsorption, diarrhea, celiac disease, and failure to thrive. This requires symptomatic treatment. [atlasgeneticsoncology.org]
Intestinal malabsorption presents as diarrhea, and decreased ability to gain weight (failure to thrive) in the newborn period. Most of the intestinal symptoms appear within the first two years of life. [rarediseases.org]
- Constipation
Also, some individuals have Hirschsprung’s disease, an absence of nerve cells in the intestine, which presents with constipation from birth. [rarediseases.org]
Skin
- Alopecia
Called also alopecia. canine hereditary hypotrichosis congenital hypotrichosis absence of hair at birth. [medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
About 15% of affected individuals have complete hair loss (alopecia), which includes the scalp, eyelashes, eyebrows, and body hair. Decreased red blood cell production (anemia) has been reported in about 80% of affected individuals. [rarediseases.org]
About 15% of affected persons have complete primary alopecia including scalp hair and eyelashes, eyebrows, and body hair. Immunodeficiency may manifest as lymphopenia and defects in T-lymphocyte function and/or proliferation [ Kavadas et al 2008 ]. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

At 4 years, respiratory insufficiency and quadriplegia spontaneously occurred, which was attributed to cervical cord compression. After 4 months of ventilation, the patient died of myocardial infarction. [jmg.bmj.com]
- Confusion
Skeletal dysplasia represents a major skeletal malformation complex characterized by wide spectrum and confusing clinical presentations of bone deformities encountered in paediatric orthopaedic practices [11]. [cyberleninka.ru]
If recurrent infections are present, milder forms of SIOD may be confused w/CHH [ Baradaran-Heravi et al 2008 ]. 4. 5. 6. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
First, in ourpatient these lesions were absent in the previous skeletal radio-graphic workup (2002) and only minor alterations were detectablein 2006 when symptoms firstly occurred. [dokumen.tips]
Treatment
There are two main types of clinical studies: Clinical trials determine if a new test or treatment for a disease is effective and safe by comparing groups receiving different tests/treatments. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
Not everyone with CHH has the same symptoms or requires the same treatments. [thinkgenetic.com]

Prognosis is dependent on the presence and severity of immunodeficiency. Management is focused on protecting affected individuals from infection by means of vaccinations and managing infections when they do occur. [nxgenmdx.com]

Etiology
CONCLUSION: The etiology of this finding remains unclear. Some causes of such deposits can be of a reversible nature, thus prompting early recognition although their consequences on clinical outcome remain mostly unknown. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology The genetic defect in cartilage-hair hypoplasia has been identified as a mutation in the gene for RNAase RMRP, mapped to 9p12. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 52, 56] RMRP is a ribonucleoprotein present in the nucleus and mitochondria. [emedicine.medscape.com]
