In this present study, the translocation t(4;11)(q25;pter) was seen. [casereports.in]

Chromosomes, which are present in the nucleus of human cells, carry the genetic information for each individual. Human body cells normally have 46 chromosomes. [rarediseases.org]

As visual function can be preserved with early diagnosis, the knowledge of this presentation is important for the ARS patients. [jomfp.in]

If photophobia is present in patients with corectopia and polycoria, contact lenses may be used to cover the holes in the iris. Prognosis Prognosis is good, particularly in the absence of glaucoma. [orpha.net]

• Rubeosis Iridis

  Congenital ectropion uveae can also be seen with rubeosis iridis. [eyewiki.aao.org]

• Miosis

  This condition is also characterized by microsperophakia, miosis, and poor papillary dilation. [eyewiki.aao.org]

Treatment - Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome The treatment of Rieger syndrome is symptomatic and supportive and prostheses are used for dental malformations. Also, Genetic counseling may be of benefit for patients and their families. [checkorphan.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]

Etiology Patients with ARS have been found to have mutations in the transcription factor genes PITX2 (4q25) and FOXC1 (6p25). A large number of different mutations have been identified but there is no clear genotype-phenotype relationship. [orpha.net]

However, a family has been reported with a severe 'Axenfeld-Rieger phenotype' in which a digenic etiology may have been responsible: patients had mutations in both FOXC1 and PITX2. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Summary Epidemiology The syndrome has an estimated prevalence of 1/200,000. Clinical description The clinical manifestations of ARS are highly variable. Features can be divided into ocular and non-ocular findings. [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]

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]

As glaucoma may manifest only in late childhood or even adulthood, these patients must be closely followed up for glaucoma even after they have been managed for the correction of eyelid abnormalities of BPES in order to prevent irreversible sight-threatening [ijo.in]

Management of these patients should include screening for and management of glaucoma, prevention and treatment of amblyopia, and optimization of lenses for visual function or photophobia and lifelong monitoring of the health of their eyes. [webeye.ophth.uiowa.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]
