Some authors still subcategorize ARS in three terms, commonly with overlapping presentations. [statpearls.com]

There are some limitations in the present case: Only 1 ARS patient was presented because it is a kind of rare autosomal dominant disorder in the ophthalmic clinic. [journals.lww.com]

This is consistent with the presentation of the Chinese ARS patients of the present study. The proband presented with glaucoma and severe visual field defect in the right eye but a normal visual field in the left eye. [spandidos-publications.com]

  Additional disorders such as iridogoniodysgenesis, iris hypoplasia and Peter’s anomaly fall under the umbrella of ARS. ARS is fully penetrant but shows variable expression, even within a family. [genedx.com]

  Clinical conditions falling within the phenotypic spectrum of anterior segment dysgeneses include aniridia, Axenfeld anomaly, Reiger anomaly/syndrome, Peters anomaly, and iridogoniodysgenesis. ASGD4 is an autosomal dominant disease. [genecards.org]

  Any variants that fall outside these regions are not analyzed. Any specific limitations in the analysis of these genes are also listed in the table below. [invitae.com]

  Peters’ anomaly is one disease in a constellation of diseases that causes corneal opacity due to dysgenesis of the anterior segment during development. Peters’ anomaly can cause devastating corneal opacity in an infant leading to severe amblyopia. [eyewiki.aao.org]

  Absence of other corneal abnormalities, such as megalocornea, sclerocornea and corneal opacity are useful in distinguishing ARS from other anterior segment disorders. [orpha.net]

• Suggestibility

  Neither of the mother's parents are phenotypically affected with the condition and neither have the same mutation, suggesting a de novo event in the patient's mother. [karger.com]

  There are clues suggesting a disturbance of regulation of apoptosis 7, while other studies suggest that the disturbance occurs on terminal differentiation of the neural crest-derived corneal endothelium 8-9. [scielo.br]

  Currently, it is suggested that all these abnormalities are actually part of the same syndrome: Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome [5]. The authors declare no conflict of interest. [heraldopenaccess.us]

  Results Congenital Axenfeld-Rieger anomaly and glaucoma were inherited by both the proband and her male half-sibling from a phenotypically positive father and 2 different phenotypically negative mothers, suggesting an autosomal dominant inheritance. [jamanetwork.com]

In fact, the treatment only involved the use of RPE and fixed orthodontic treatment for alignment of the dental elements. [head-face-med.biomedcentral.com]

After treatment with 10 μM DEAB, treatment with 0.1 nM and 1 nM RA did not affect EOM organization (O, P). Treatment with 10 nM RA with 10 μM DEAB resulted in EOMs that were thickened and disorganized as the IO muscles were connected to each other. [iovs.arvojournals.org]

In case of glaucoma, the goal of treatment is to reach low IOP. Surgery is performed if eye drops are not sufficient in lowering IOP. [orpha.net]

Axenfeld syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant [2] disorder, which affects the development of the teeth, eyes, and abdominal region. [3] Pathophysiology [ edit ] The molecular genetics of Axenfeld syndrome are poorly understood, but center on three genes [en.wikipedia.org]

[…] follows: Detection of any of these mutations can give patients a clear diagnosis and prenatal procedures such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Chorionic villus sampling and Amniocentesis can be offered to patients and prospective parents. [11] Pathophysiology [ipfs.io]

Approximately 10% to 30% of patients with ARS present PITX2 mutations in 4q25 [6][9], and 40% to 70% present either FOXC1 or PITX2 gene abnormalities.[5] Heterozygous mutations in the FOXC1 gene and PITX2 cause 16% and 10% of cases respectively.[9] Pathophysiology [statpearls.com]

Pathophysiology Normal corneal development depends on neural crest migration which occurs in 3 distinctive waves during embryogenesis to produce the structures of the anterior chamber. This typically occurs during the 7th week of gestation. [eyewiki.aao.org]

Early detection of ARS can also prevent serious ophthalmological problems. [hindawi.com]

The prognosis is excellent in the absence of glaucoma but monitoring via periodic eye examinations is important throughout life as glaucoma can appear at any time and must be treated to prevent blindness. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

CONCLUSION Early diagnosis of WS in the emergency department is important to prevent pedicle torsion or splenic necrosis and to avoid splenectomy. [wjgnet.com]
