Fibular aplasia-ectrodactyly syndrome

MedGen UID:
396290
Concept ID:
C1862100
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: Brachydactyly-ectrodactyly with fibular aplasia or hypoplasia; Fibular aplasia ectrodactyly
Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal dominant inheritance
MedGen UID:
141047
Concept ID:
C0443147
Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele.

Definition

Ectrodactyly (split-hand/foot malformation) associated with fibular hypoplasia/aplasia is a rare disorder that appears to be inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion with reduced penetrance and variable expression (Evans et al., 2002). A form of fibular hypoplasia/aplasia associated with oligosyndactyly and tibial campomelia has been reported (FATCO syndrome; 246570). Split-hand/foot malformation associated with tibial hypoplasia/aplasia has also been described (see SHFLD1, 119100). [from OMIM]

Clinical features

From HPO
Brachydactyly
MedGen UID:
67454
Concept ID:
C0221357
Congenital Abnormality
Digits that appear disproportionately short compared to the hand/foot. The word brachydactyly is used here to describe a series distinct patterns of shortened digits (brachydactyly types A-E). This is the sense used here.
Split foot
MedGen UID:
140919
Concept ID:
C0432028
Congenital Abnormality
A condition in which middle parts of the foot (toes and metatarsals) are missing giving a cleft appearance. The severity is very variable ranging from slightly hypoplastic 3rd toe over absent 2nd or 3rd toes as far as oligo- or monodactyl feet.
Short phalanx of finger
MedGen UID:
163753
Concept ID:
C0877165
Finding
Short (hypoplastic) phalanx of finger, affecting one or more phalanges.
Fibular aplasia
MedGen UID:
373034
Concept ID:
C1836186
Finding
Absence of the fibula.
Aplasia/Hypoplasia of the fibula
MedGen UID:
341608
Concept ID:
C1856732
Finding
Absence or underdevelopment of the fibula.
