Presentation
Abstract A three-generation family presenting with ocular developmental abnormalities, including anterior segment dysgenesis and coloboma, associated with brachydactyly and clinodactyly is presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
AB - A three-generation family presenting with ocular developmental abnormalities, including anterior segment dysgenesis and coloboma, associated with brachydactyly and clinodactyly is presented. [research.manchester.ac.uk]
Reduplicated but clear crystalline lenses were also present. [entokey.com]
Glaucoma is frequently present ( 67%) and often difficult to treat. It is responsible for blindness in a significant number of patients. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
The clinical presentation of ocular coloboma is variable. Some individuals may present with minimal defects in the anterior iris leaf without other ocular defects. [nectarmutation.org]

Short Stature
There was severe disproportionate short stature, with a final height of less than 100 cm; scoliosis was usually mild. Visual loss was progressive, with stabilization in adolescence. [mendelian.co]
XL megalocornea hypertelorism antimongoloid palpebral fissures short stature sydactyly XL lethal to males corpus callosal agenesis & other CNS abnormalities infantile spasms mental retardation vertebral and rib malformations chorioretinal lacunar defects [quizlet.com]
Additional findings are hypotrichosis (sparse hair), cataracts, skin atrophy, dental anomalies and short stature. In most cases intelligence is normal, but some may show mental retardation. [bredagenetics.com]

Treatment
Food and Drug Administration has chosen Wave Life Sciences’ planned phase 2/3 study of suvodirsen, its lead experimental therapy for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, to break new ground. [globalgenes.org]
Treatment Treatment Options: There is no known treatment. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
No further testing or treatment necessary. Positive screen is any of the following : Results. Any of the following: (a) Pulse oximetry In either right hand or foot. [mhmedical.com]

Prognosis
May require penetrating keratoplasty by 40 and prognosis for clear graft is excellent. Bilateral, autosomal dominant, amyloid opacities in central cornea. [cram.com]
However, this disorder generally has a relatively poor surgical prognosis, both for glaucoma control and for corneal opacities, if present. [entokey.com]

Subtypes of frontonasal dysplasia are useful in determining clinical prognosis. Am J Med Genet A. 2007 Dec 15; 143A(24):3069-78. Hsieh EW, Yeh RF, Oberoi S, Vargervik K, Slavotinek AM. [pediatrics.ucsf.edu]
Life-long hormone replacement therapy (gluco- and mineralocorticoids for the classical forms with salt wasting, and glucocorticoids for the simple virilizing forms) requires close follow-up (pediatric through to adulthood) and has improved the prognosis [codelay.com]
Etiology
Terrien's Marginal Degeneration Unknown etiology, slowly progressive, uncommon marginal thinning of corneal stroma margin, advancing edge exhibits lipid deposition, corneal perforation possible, may look like early arcus, causes significant astigmatism [cram.com]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome has an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. The foot of the patient with Greig cephalopolysyndactyly shows a partially duplicated hallux with cutaneous syndactyly of several digits. [ipfs.io]
Prevention
Each of these genetic changes prevents one copy of the gene in each cell from producing any functional protein. [ipfs.io]
Some birth defects can be prevented. Taking folic acid can help prevent some birth defects. Talk to your doctor about any medicines you take. Some medicines can cause serious birth defects. [codelay.com]
