An 8-year-old Japanese boy had Sakoda complex (basal encephalomeningocele, agenesis of the corpus callosum, and cleft lip and/or palate) associated with bilateral anophthalmia, dysgenesis of the cerebral cortex, severe mental retardation, and intractable epilepsy as core symptoms and hemiparesis,
BACKGROUND
Hypothalamic hamartomas are congenital malformations. Clinically, they can be asymptomatic, but they cause seizures, mental retardation and precocious puberty in many cases.
METHODS
A 20-day-old boy with hypothalamic hamartoma and bilateral anophthalmia was presented. Except those, no
We describe an infant with a unique pattern of midline defects, including anophthalmia, cleft lip and palate, macrocephaly, cutis aplasia, and micrognathia. CNS anomalies including massive hydrocephalus with destruction of most recognizable structures were observed. The infant also developed
Encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis (ECCL) is a rare neurocutaneous syndrome that affects ectomesodermal tissues (skin, eyes, adipose tissue, and brain). The neurologic manifestations associated with ECCL are various including seizures. However, ECCL patients very rarely develop brain tumors that
Heterozygous, de novo, loss-of-function mutations in SOX2 have been shown to cause bilateral anophthalmia. Here we provide a detailed description of the clinical features associated with SOX2 mutations in the five individuals with reported mutations and four newly identified cases (including the
Anophthalmia/microphthalmia (A/M) is a genetically heterogeneous birth defect for which the etiology is unknown in more than 50% of patients. We used exome sequencing with the ACE Exome(TM) (Personalis, Inc; 18 cases) and UCSF Genomics Core (21 cases) to sequence 28 patients with A/M and four
The oculocerebrocutaneous (OCC) syndrome is characterized by the presence of orbital cysts and microphthalmia/anophthalmia, focal hypo- and aplastic skin defects, skin appendages and cerebral malformations. Most of the patients suffer from psychomotor retardation and seizures. To date, 23 patients
Six new cases of the amniotic band sequence with a wide spectrum of defects were studied with respect to neurocutaneous manifestations, including histopathologic characteristics. Fetuses 1 and 2 were stillborn. Despite severe craniofacial involvement, infants 3 and 4 survived 1 yr and 22 months,
Oculocerebrocutaneous or Delleman syndrome is a rare congenital syndrome characterized by microphthalmia/anophthalmia with or without orbital cysts, focal skin defects, intracranial cysts and skin appendages. We here report a case of 1-year-old male child with periocular skin tags, lid colobomas,
BACKGROUND
Lenz microphthalmia syndrome (LMS) is a genetically heterogeneous X-linked disorder characterised by microphthalmia/anophthalmia, skeletal abnormalities, genitourinary malformations, and anomalies of the digits, ears, and teeth. Intellectual disability and seizure disorders are seen in
