The gene for Tel-Hashomer camptodactyly syndrome is present in all populations around the world. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The present description expands the phenotypic spectrum of the syndrome and gives new support to the hypothesized pleiotropic effects of the THCS gene on connective tissue. [wwww.unboundmedicine.com]

None of the salient features of LDS are present in our patient. Thereafter, when myopathy is included, the search refers only to this present syndrome (THCS). The important differential diagnosis is MFS. [caribbean.scielo.org]

Herein, we present another case report and review of the literature of other syndromes associated with camptodactyly and mitral valve prolapse. Further cases with this syndrome need to be reported for mapping of the candidate loci. [pesquisa.bvsalud.org]

• Weight Gain

  At 4 years heart evaluation was requested because of insufficient weight gain; it showed a large atrial septal defect, which was repaired. Bilateral inguinal hernia was corrected one year later. [vdocuments.mx]

• Spindle-shaped Fingers

  The most consistent findings of the syndrome are: facial asymmetry, ocular hypertelorism, long philtrum, small mouth, highly arched palate, spindle-shaped fingers, camptodactyly, and abnormal dermatoglyphics. [vdocuments.mx]

• Mitral Valve Prolapse

  None of them had abnormalities of the heart (5).Our patient had mitral valve prolapse and mitral regurgitation. [caribbean.scielo.org]

  The presence of mitral valve prolapse has been reported but is not considered a constant feature of this disorder. One must consider the possibility of cervical spina bifida (avoid hyperextension of the neck) and the underlying myopathy. [accessanesthesiology.mhmedical.com]

  The manifestations of THCS other than camptodactyly are clubbed feet, thenar and hypothenar hypoplasia, abnormal palmar creases and dermatoglyphic ridges, spina bifida and mitral valve prolapse. [pesquisa.bvsalud.org]

  Tel Hashomer camptodactyly syndrome THCS Tel Hashomer camptodactyly syndrome (THCS) is a rare disorder comprising camptodactyly, hypotonia and muscle hypoplasia, skeletal dysplasia, inguinal hernia and mitral valve prolapse and abnormal dermatoglyphics [fitness-vip.com]

The disease is considered relatively benign when appropriately treated with citrulline supplementation and a low-protein diet, but this treatment may be insufficient in preventing severe complications. [nature.com]
