Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
614091 | OMIM | Short-rib thoracic dysplasia 7 with or without polydactyly (SRTD7) | A form of short-rib thoracic dysplasia, a group of autosomal recessive ciliopathies that are characterized by a constricted thoracic cage, short ribs, shortened tubular bones, and a 'trident' appearance of the acetabular roof. Polydactyly is variably present. Non-skeletal involvement can include cleft lip/palate as well as anomalies of major organs such as the brain, eye, heart, kidneys, liver, pancreas, intestines, and genitalia. Some forms of the disease are lethal in the neonatal period due to respiratory insufficiency secondary to a severely restricted thoracic cage, whereas others are compatible with life. Disease spectrum encompasses Ellis-van Creveld syndrome, asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (Jeune syndrome), Mainzer-Saldino syndrome, and short rib-polydactyly syndrome. SRTD7 hallmarks are acromesomelic hypomineralization, campomelia, polysyndactyly, laterality defects, and cystic kidneys. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. WDR35 mutations cause short rib-polydactyly syndrome through impaired cilia formation. Primary fibroblasts from SRTD7 patients lacking WDR35 fail to produce cilia (PubMed:21473986). |

Polydactyly is variably present. Non-skeletal involvement can include cleft lip/palate as well as anomalies of major organs such as the brain, eye, heart, kidneys, liver, pancreas, intestines, and genitalia.

Disease spectrum encompasses Ellis-van Creveld syndrome, asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (Jeune syndrome), Mainzer-Saldino syndrome, and short rib-polydactyly syndrome. SRTD7 hallmarks are acromesomelic hypomineralization, campomelia, polysyndactyly, laterality defects, and cystic kidneys. The disease is caused by variants affecting distinct genetic loci, including the gene represented in this entry. SRTD7/20 can be caused by co-occurrence of WDR35 variant p.Trp311Leu and INTU p.Gln276Ter. One such patient has been reported. |
613610 | OMIM | Cranioectodermal dysplasia 2 (CED2) | A disorder characterized by craniofacial, skeletal and ectodermal abnormalities. Clinical features include short stature, dolichocephaly, craniosynostosis, narrow thorax with pectus excavatum, short limbs, brachydactyly, joint laxity, narrow palpebral fissures, telecanthus with hypertelorism, low-set simple ears, everted lower lip, and short neck. Teeth abnormalities include widely spaced, hypoplastic and fused teeth. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
