Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata Type 2

RCDP

Life expectancy is considerably reduced. [1] [2] Prevalence Estimated 1 in 100,000; RCDP 1 is most common subtype. [1] Characteristics/Clinical Presentation These patients present with severe and symmetrical shortening of the proximal long bones (rhizomelia [physio-pedia.com]

Clinical Characteristics Ocular Features: Congenital cataracts are the outstanding ocular feature of this syndrome and are present in over 70% of patients. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

RCDP type I results from mutations in the PEX7 gene encoding the peroxisomal targeting signal type II(PST2) receptors and presents with both a defect in plasmalogen biosynthesis and phytanic acid oxidation. [kjp.or.kr]

  • Poor Feeding

    After ten days, the baby was seen by the primary-care physician (PCP) for a new-onset fever and poor feeding. The patient was put on amoxicillin for otitis media but no clinical improvement ensued. [file.scirp.org]

    Prevention of Secondary Complications Poor feeding and recurrent aspiration necessitate the placement of a gastrostomy tube. Note: Improved nutrition does not enhance linear growth. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

TREATMENT Treatment for Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata Type 1 is symptomatic depending on the features of an individual. [evolvegene.com]

Management and treatment There is no specific treatment for the enzyme defect. Prognosis Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia has a severe prognosis with death generally occurring during the first decade of life, mainly due to respiratory complications. [orpha.net]

Treatment Treatment Options: No treatment is available beyond supportive measures. Cataract removal may improve vision but the poor prognosis for longevity requires caution be used. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

TREATMENT There is no current cure for RCDP. Treatment is supportive and many include physical therapy, anti-seizure medication, hearing amplification, and cataract removal. [secure.ssa.gov]
