A rare congenital limb malformation syndrome with characteristics of a highly variable combination of congenital anomalies of the femur, fibula and/or ulna, which can appear along with finger/toe anomalies at the ulnar/fibular side. Limb defects are asymmetrical, with upper limbs more often affected than lower limbs and the right side of the body more often affected than the left. Abnormalities of the upper limb include amelia, hypoplasia of the humerus, humero-radial synostosis and malformation of the ulna and ulnar rays. Abnormalities of the lower limb include absence of the proximal part of the femur and absence of the fibula. Axial skeleton, internal organs and intellectual function are usually normal.

A rare congenital malformation syndrome, most commonly presenting with hemifacial microsomia associated with ear and/or eye malformations and vertebral anomalies of variable severity. Additional malformations involving the heart, kidneys, central nervous, digestive and skeletal systems may also be associated. The phenotypic spectrum ranges from isolated mild facial asymmetry to severe bilateral craniofacial microsomia and additional multiple extracranial abnormalities. Intelligence is typically normal. The aetiology is poorly understood but is suspected to be heterogeneous and multifactorial. The gene MYT1 (20q13.33) has been implicated in a few rare cases, and chromosomal abnormalities have been associated with some of the congenital malformations associated with this condition. The condition usually occurs sporadically, but autosomal dominant inheritance has been reported. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)

A rare entity usually diagnosed by echocardiography. It may be limited to one of the four valves but can also involve the two atrioventricular valves and the two semilunar valves. May be the hallmark of genetic anomalies. Chromosomal anomalies should be searched when polyvalvular dysplasia is found in a fetus, namely trisomy 18 and trisomy 13. Triscuspid valve dysplasia can be the only cardiac finding in trisomy 21 and a karyotype analysis should be performed in all fetuses exhibiting this anomaly. In the absence of chromosomal anomalies, polyvalvular dysplasia can be observed in Noonan syndrome. Thickening of the different cardiac valves can be observed in various storage diseases such as mucopolysaccharidoses. In these later conditions, it develops after the neonatal period and is frequently associated with extracardiac symptoms suggestive of the diagnosis. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)

To date, mutations in three genes have been demonstrated; KRIT1, CCM2 and PDCD10, located on chromosome 7q21.2, 7p13, and 3q26.1 respectively, which encode proteins that, among their various functions, modulate junction formation between vascular endothelial cells.

A rare eye tumor characterized by a white, gray or yellow-colored cystic mass that arises from the primitive neuroectodermal, nonpigmented epithelium of the ciliary body, or occasionally from the optic nerve, optic disc, retina or iris. Typically it has a benign clinical course with good prognosis and generally presents with childhood onset of poor vision and pain, glaucoma, and/or cataract. Leukocoria, exotropia, exophthalmos, strabismus, epiphora, change in eye color, hyphema and raised intraocular pressure are also remarkable manifestations.

A rare fibro-osseous lesion of the jaw that predominantly affects middle-aged women of African descent. It is generally asymptomatic or may manifest with pain and gingival swelling. Multiple dense lobulated bone lesions often symmetrical are located in various regions of the jaw and can be seen on radiological examination. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)
A rare focal skeletal dysostosis with characteristics of symmetrical hypoplasia of the scapulae and the iliac wings of the pelvis. Approximately 10 patients have been reported so far. Additional skeletal abnormalities may include hypoplasia of the clavicles, ribs, femora and fibula, together with spina bifida and prominent lumbar lordosis. Eye anomalies (coloboma of iris and retina) have occasionally been reported. Intelligence is described as normal. Pelvis-shoulder dysplasia seems to be a genetically heterogeneous disorder but no causative genes have been identified so far. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)
A rare form of PCH with clinical manifestation neonatally of hypotonia and impaired swallowing and from infancy onward seizures, optic atrophy and short stature, but none of the clinical findings are specific for PCH3. To date, PCH3 is reported in only 3 families. In 2 families, an implication of locus 7q11-21 has been demonstrated. PCH3 is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

A rare form of agammaglobulinaemia, a primary immunodeficiency disease, characterised by variable immune dysfunction with frequent and recurrent bacterial infections and/or chronic diarrhoea. Caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the mu heavy-chain gene (IGHM) on chromosome 14q32. Grammatical description error (foundation metadata concept)
A rare form of agammaglobulinemia, a primary immunodeficiency disease, characterized by variable immune dysfunction with frequent and recurrent bacterial infections and/or chronic diarrhea. Caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the mu heavy-chain gene (IGHM) on chromosome 14q32. Grammatical description error (foundation metadata concept)
A rare form of combined immunodeficiency with characteristics of microcephaly, growth retardation and T and B cell lymphopenia. Patients present in childhood with growth retardation, microcephaly, urogenital and bone malformations, dysmorphic features, including ''bird-like'' facial dysmorphism, and features of combined immunodeficiency. Some patients may also present with autoimmune cytopenia. This disease is caused by mutations in the NHEJ1 (or Cernunos) gene (2q35). The resulting defect of Cernunnos/XLF, a core protein of the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathway, affects the major mechanism of DNA double-strand break repair. Transmission is autosomal recessive. Erroneous component (foundation metadata concept)
A rare form of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma occurring most commonly in patients over the age of 50 (usually between 70-75 years of age), without overt immunodeficiency, and presenting with nodal and extranodal involvement (in sites such as the stomach, lung, skin and pancreas) and B symptoms (fever, night sweats, weight loss). The tumor is characterized by an aggressive course and a short survival rate. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)

A rare form of genetic lipodystrophy with loss of subcutaneous adipose tissue from the trunk, buttocks and limbs; fat accumulation in the neck, face, axillary and pelvic regions; muscular hypertrophy; and usually associated with metabolic complications such as insulin resistance. Inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)
A rare form of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with clinical manifestation of acute or subacute proximal muscle weakness and histopathological features of myocyte necrosis and regeneration without significant inflammation. The main presenting feature is subacute severe symmetrical proximal myopathy with a markedly elevated creatine kinase level. The course is often severe but may be self-limiting and recovery may occur within weeks to months of discontinuing the causative agent, if identified. The disease is thought to be related to an immune response possibly triggered by drug therapy, connective tissue diseases, or cancer. The exact mechanism underling the disorder is not known but some autoantibodies appear to be a likely cause. Malignancy may be involved. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)

A rare form of pontocerebellar hypoplasia with characteristics at birth of hypotonia, clonus, epilepsy, impaired swallowing and from infancy progressive microcephaly, spasticity and lactic acidosis. Reported in less than 10 cases to date. Caused by missense and splice site mutations in the mitochondrial arginyl-transfer RNA synthetase (RARS2) gene located to 6q16.1. Prognosis is poor, exact life expectancy is unknown but in most cases does not exceed infancy. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)
A rare form of porokeratosis occurring mainly in adolescence and characterised by small pruritic or painful keratotic papules that first appear on the palms and soles, and may gradually become generalised. The prevalence is unknown but it is one of the rarest forms of porokeratosis. The disease is more frequently seen in males. The exact aetiology is unknown. A possible locus for PPPD has been found on chromosome 12q24.1-24.2. Usually follows a dominant (autosomal or X-linked) pattern of inheritance. Outdated component (foundation metadata concept)
