Muenke syndrome (FGFR3-related craniosynostosis) : expansion of the phenotype and review of the literature. 2. The classical craniosynostosis syndromes are inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion and include Apert (MIM 101200), Pfeiffer (MIM 101600), Saethre-Chotzen (MIM 101400), and Crouzon (MIM 123500) syndromes. Dev Cell. -, Doherty ES, Lacbawan F, Hadley DW, Brewer C, Zalewski C, Kim HJ, et al. An additional source of confusion, nearly unique to the craniosynostosis syndromes, is that one specific mutation can cause different craniosynostosis syndromes. Both environmental factors and genetic factors are associated with development of craniosynostosis. Saethre–Chotzen Syndrome (SCS) (Acrocephalosyndactyly type III) is a rare congenital disorder associated with premature closure of the skull bones (craniosynostosis ), resulting in a cone-shaped head and an asymmetrical face.

Epub 2019 Jun 6. -, Cai J, Goodman BK, Patel AS, Mulliken JB, Van Maldergem L, Hoganson GE, et al. The condition is associated with syndromes caused by mutations in fibroblast growth factor receptor genes (FGFR), including thanatophoric dwarfism type 2 (FGFR3) and Pfeiffer syndrome type 2 (FGFR2). Treacher Collins Syndrome, also known as Mandibulofacial Craniosynostosis is a condition that affects the development of the bones and tissues of the face. Identical Twins Discordant for Metopic Craniosynostosis: Evidence of Epigenetic Influences. Fig. Syndromic craniosynostosis affects up to 1:30,000 live births with characteristic craniofacial growth restrictions, deformities, and other associated abnormalities, such as carpal-pedal anomalies and cognitive function impairment. Keywords: Control of skeletal patterning by ephrinB1-EphB interactions. Although most of syndromic craniosynostosis show autosomal dominant inheritance, approximately half of patients are de novo cases. 2020 Aug 11;13:147-150. doi: 10.2147/TACG.S251581. eCollection 2019 Feb.
