Feingold syndrome or the MMT syndrome (microcephaly, mesobrachyphalangy, tracheosophageal fistula syndrome) is a rare condition first described in 1975 by Murray Feingold. The most consistent abnormalities found are those of the hand and feet in 80 to 90% of patients.1 Brachymesophalangy, most frequently present in the feet, as in our case, is the most frequent abnormality. Clinodactyly and syndactyly also occur. The malformation of the hands and feet is essentially the same as that of Temtamy A4 brachydactyly,2 brachymesophalangy of fingers two and five and amesophalangy of toes two to five. Although the condition is autosomal dominant, 63% of patients are female.1 The autosomal dominant inheritance has been demonstrated in many families for several generations.1,3 Figure 3. Sagittal midline T1 weighted MRI image demonstrates Microcephaly is a common finding. In all, 30% of patients have craniofacial disproportion with microcephaly. The corpus callosum is esophageal atresia either with or without a tracheosophageal present and the posterior fossa is normal. fistula.4 Duodenal atresia occurs in approximately 20% of cases,4 Figure 4. Anteroposterior radiographs of the left hand (a), right hand (b) obtained at 2 years of age and of the left foot (c) and the right foot (d) from the neonatal period. The hands demonstrate small second and fifth middle phalanges (arrowheads). Slight flexion deformity at the third and fourth proximal interphalangeal joints is also present. The feet demonstrate small second and fourth middle phalanges (arrows) and absent ossification centers in the third and fifth middle phalanges. A varus fourth toe is present bilaterally which overlies the third toe. Monitoring devices are attached to the feet laterally obscuring the detail of the fifth toes.

The aim is to obtain 8.1 Giga base pairs per exome with a mapped fraction of 0.99. The average coverage of the exome is ~50x. Duplicate reads are excluded. Data are demultiplexed with bcl2fastq Conversion Software from Illumina. Reads are mapped to the genome using the BWA‐MEM algorithm (reference: http://bio‐bwa.sourceforge.net/). Variant detection is performed by the Genome Analysis Toolkit HaplotypeCaller (reference: http://www.broadinstitute.org/gatk/). The detected variants are filtered and annotated with Cartagenia software and classified with Alamut Visual. It is not excluded that pathogenic mutations are being missed using this technology. At this moment, there is not enough information about the sensitivity of this technique with respect to the detection of deletions and duplications of more than 5 nucleotides and of somatic mosaic mutations (all types of sequence changes).

J Med Genet: first published as 10.1136/jmg.2005.038158 on 18 November 2005. Downloaded from Abstract Oesophageal atresia and/or tracheo-oesophageal fistula are common malformations occurring in approximately 1 in 3500 births. In around half of cases (syndromic oesophageal atresia), there are other associated anomalies, with cardiac malformations being the most common. These may occur as part of the VACTERL association (OMIM 192350). In the remainder of cases, oesophageal atresia/tracheo-oesophageal fistula occur in isolation (non-syndromic oesophageal atresia). Data from twin and family studies suggest that, in the majority of cases, genetic factors do not play a major role, and yet there are well-defined instances of this malformation where genetic factors clearly are important. This is highlighted by the recent identification of no fewer than three separate genes with a role in the aetiology of oesophageal atresia.

  • VACTERL/VATER Association Benjamin D Solomon
    Solomon Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases 2011, 6:56 http://www.ojrd.com/content/6/1/56 REVIEW Open Access VACTERL/VATER Association Benjamin D Solomon Abstract VACTERL/VATER association is typically defined by the presence of at least three of the following congenital malformations: vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, tracheo-esophageal fistula, renal anomalies, and limb abnormalities. In addition to these core component features, patients may also have other congenital anomalies. Although diagnostic criteria vary, the incidence is estimated at approximately 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 40,000 live-born infants. The condition is ascertained clinically by the presence of the above-mentioned malformations; importantly, there should be no clinical or laboratory-based evidence for the presence of one of the many similar conditions, as the differential diagnosis is relatively large. This differential diagnosis includes (but is not limited to) Baller-Gerold syndrome, CHARGE syndrome, Currarino syndrome, deletion 22q11.2 syndrome, Fanconi anemia, Feingold syndrome, Fryns syndrome, MURCS association, oculo-auriculo-vertebral syndrome, Opitz G/BBB syndrome, Pallister- Hall syndrome, Townes-Brocks syndrome, and VACTERL with hydrocephalus. Though there are hints regarding causation, the aetiology has been identified only in a small fraction of patients to date, likely due to factors such as a high degree of clinical and causal heterogeneity, the largely sporadic nature of the disorder, and the presence of many similar conditions. New genetic research methods offer promise that the causes of VACTERL association will be better defined in the relatively near future. Antenatal diagnosis can be challenging, as certain component features can be difficult to ascertain prior to birth.

    Congenital Structural Heart Disease Panel Test code: CA1501 Is a 114 gene panel that includes assessment of non-coding variants. Is ideal for patients with congenital heart disease, particularly those with features of hereditary disorders. Is not ideal for patients suspected to have a ciliopathy or a rasopathy. For those patients, please consider our Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Panel and our Noonan Syndrome Panel, respectively. About Congenital Structural Heart Disease There are many types of congenital heart disease (CHD) ranging from simple asymptomatic defects to complex defects with severe, life-threatening symptoms. CHDs are the most common type of birth defect and affect at least 8 out of every 1,000 newborns. Annually, more than 35,000 babies in the United States are born with CHDs. Many of these CHDs are simple conditions and need no treatment or are easily repaired. Some babies are born with complex CHD requiring special medical care. The diagnosis and treatment of complex CHDs has greatly improved over the past few decades. As a result, almost all children who have complex heart defects survive to adulthood and can live active, productive lives. However, many patients who have complex CHDs continue to need special heart care throughout their lives. In the United States, more than 1 million adults are living with congenital heart disease.

  • Feingold Syndrome
    Feingold syndrome Description Feingold syndrome is a disorder that affects many parts of the body. There are two types of Feingold syndrome, distinguished by their genetic cause; both types have similar features that can vary among affected individuals. Individuals with Feingold syndrome type 1 or type 2 have characteristic abnormalities of their fingers and toes. Almost all people with this condition have a specific hand abnormality called brachymesophalangy, which refers to shortening of the second and fifth fingers. Other common abnormalities include fifth fingers that curve inward ( clinodactyly), underdeveloped thumbs (thumb hypoplasia), and fusion (syndactyly) of the second and third toes or the fourth and fifth toes. Additional common features of both types of Feingold syndrome include an unusually small head size (microcephaly), a small jaw (micrognathia), a narrow opening of the eyelids (short palpebral fissures), and mild to moderate learning disabilities. Less often, affected individuals have hearing loss, short stature, or kidney or heart abnormalities. People with Feingold syndrome type 1 are frequently born with a blockage in part of their digestive system called gastrointestinal atresia. In most cases, the blockage occurs in the esophagus (esophageal atresia) or in part of the small intestine (duodenal atresia). Individuals with type 2 do not have gastrointestinal atresias. Frequency Feingold syndrome appears to be a rare condition, although its exact prevalence is unknown. Type 1 is more common than type 2. Causes Mutations in the MYCN gene cause Feingold syndrome type 1, and mutations in chromosome 13 that remove (delete) a region of the chromosome that includes the MIR17HG gene cause type 2.
