[Neuroectodermal dysplasia in 2 Uzbek families].

The authors present the clinical and genealogical description of 6 patients with neuroectodermal dysplasia diagnosed by a medical expedition party in Khankin district of the Khorezm region. Unique combination of clinical signs (total alopecia, microcephalia, oligophrenia, hyperhydrosis and hypogenitalism) helped differentiating the syndrome from other well-known hereditary neuroectodermal dysplasias. The nature of the syndrome segregation in the families suggested its autosomal-recessive mode of inheritance.

Aplasia cutis congenita, skull defect, brain heterotopia, and intestinal lymphangiectasia.

We describe a female infant with a previously unreported combination of manifestations characterized by aplasia cutis, skull defect, brain heterotopia, mild congenital lymphedema, and intestinal lymphangiectasia. The association of intestinal lymphangiectasia and aplasia cutis, and the association of intestinal lymphangiectasia with brain heterotopia in the lymphedema-lymphangiectasia-mental retardation syndrome have been described in single reports. In one family, the association of cortical dysplasia and congenital lymphedema have been related to mutations in the RELN gene.

Further phenotypic and genetic variation in ADULT syndrome.

ADULT (Acro-dermato-ungual-lacrimal-tooth) syndrome is characterized by ectrodactyly, syndactyly, fingernail and toenail dysplasia, hypoplasia of the breast and nipple, excessive freckling, lacrimal duct atresia, frontal alopecia, primary hypodontia, and/or early loss of permanent teeth. It is a rare autosomal dominant disorder which has been linked to mutation in the p63 gene. The p63 gene has been described in five overlapping limb malformation syndromes including the EEC syndrome (ectodermal ectrodactyly clefting). We report on the first case of ADULT syndrome of a mother and daughter with a new mutation R227Q in exon 6 of the p63 gene. This has not been previously associated with ADULT syndrome but only seen in EEC. In addition to the previously reported features of ADULT syndrome this report also describes some additional findings including hyperextensibility at the distal interphalageal joints, bilateral thumb duplication, bifid toenails, symptoms of urinary retention, vesicoureteric reflux, prominent ears, conductive hearing loss, and an overgrowth of a patch of hair in the midline of the neck. This report expands the knowledge of genotype-phenotype data on the p63 gene and suggests there may be a considerable overlap between the EEC syndrome and the ADULT syndrome.

[Urbach-Wiethe syndrome: hyalinosis and lipoidosis of the skin and mucous membranes as a neuroectodermosis].

The author reports a case of Wiethe-Urbach syndrome (dermal and mucosal hyalinosis). The diagnosis was based on characteristic clinical findings in the skin and mucosal membranes and microscopic examination of the skin. Coexistent central nervous system dysplasia was characterized by brain atrophy, especially atrophy of the subcortical layers and two horn-like calcifications on the floor of the middle cranial fossa derived, most likely, from the dura.

Blepharophimosis, corneal vascularization, deafness, and acroosteolysis: a "new" syndrome?

We report on a patient with blepharophimosis who after unsuccessful surgery developed progressive corneal vascularization. The patient had conductive hearing loss, acroosteolysis of the phalanges, arthropathy, loss of subcutaneous fat of the hands, feet and face, and oligospermia. He had had spontaneous pneumothorax four times. We have found no similar case reports in the literature and suggest that this is a new syndrome, which must be differentiated from hereditary mucoepithelial dysplasia, mandibuloacral dysplasia, keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness syndrome, Hajdu-Cheney syndrome, Penttinen syndrome, and mucopolysaccharidoses.
