Procedures addressed The inclusion of any procedure code in this table does not imply that the code is under management or requires prior authorization. Refer to the specific Health Plan's procedure code list for management requirements. Procedures addressed by this Procedure codes guideline IBMFS Multigene panel 81479 What are inherited bone marrow failure syndromes Definition Bone marrow failure (BMF) is the inability of the bone marrow to produce a sufficient quantity of functional blood cells to meet physiologic demands.1 BMF is typically classified into three categories, based on presumed etiology: inherited, secondary, or idiopathic.1 Inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFSs) are a group of genetically defined disorders that are characterized by BMF. Individuals presenting with aplastic anemia (AA), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and chronic unexplained cytopenias should be evaluated for an IBMFS.1 Incidence "The incidence of inherited bone marrow failures accounts for 10% to 15% of marrow aplasia and 30% of pediatric bone marrow failure disorders with approximately 65 cases per million live births every year."2 Seventy-five percent of children with an IBMFS have an identifiable cause.2 ©2021 eviCore healthcare.

  • Trichothiodystrophy
    Trichothiodystrophy Author: Doctor Alfredo Rossi1 and Doctor C. Cantisani. Creation date: June 2004 Scientific Editor: Prof Antonella Tosti 1Dipartimento di Malattie Cutanee-Veneree Chirurgia Plastica-Ricostruttiva, Università degli studi di Roma “La Sapienza” Abstract Keywords Definition Epidemiology Etiology Clinical description Diagnostic methods Prenatal diagnosis Management References Abstract Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterized by abnormal synthesis of the sulphur containing keratins and consequently hair dysplasia, associated with numerous symptoms affecting mainly organs derived from the neuroectoderm. This phenotypic aspect is due to mutations in the DNA-dependent ATPase/helicase subunit of TFIIH, XPB and XPD. Abnormalities in excision repair of ultraviolet (UV)-damaged DNA are recognized in about half of the patients. The clinical appearance is characterized by brittle and fragile hair, congenital ichthyosis, nail and dental dysplasias, cataract, progeria-like face, growth and mental retardation. The abnormalities are usually obvious at birth, with variable clinical expression. The variants of TTD, depending on their different associations, are known by the initials BIDS, IBIDS, PIBIDS, SIBIDS, ONMRS, as well as the eponyms of the Pollit, Tay, Sabinas syndromes or Amish brittle hair. The exact prevalence of TTD is unknown, but appears to be rather uncommon. About 20 cases of PIBI(D)S have been reported in the literature. Up to 1991, clinical data of 15 cases with IBIDS were published. Prenatal diagnostic of TTD is available. There is no specific treatment.

Abstract: Syndromic hereditary hearing impairment (HHI) is a clinically and etiologically diverse condition that has a profound influence on affected individuals and their families. As cutaneous findings are more apparent than hearing-related symptoms to clinicians and, more importantly, to caregivers of affected infants and young individuals, establishing a correlation map of skin manifestations and their underlying genetic causes is key to early identification and diagnosis of syndromic HHI. In this article, we performed a comprehensive PubMed database search on syndromic HHI with cutaneous abnormalities, and reviewed a total of 260 relevant publications.

It is a form of hair shaft disorder with increased fragility. The condition is classified into inherited and acquired. Inherited forms may be either isolated or associated with numerous genetic diseases or syndromes (e.g., Menkes disease, Björnstad syndrome, Netherton syndrome, and Bazex-Dupré-Christol syndrome). Moreover, pili torti may be a feature of various ectodermal dysplasias (such as Rapp-Hodgkin syndrome and Ankyloblepharon-ectodermal defects-cleft lip/palate syndrome). Acquired pili torti was described in numerous forms of alopecia (e.g., lichen planopilaris, discoid lupus erythematosus, dissecting Citation: Hoffmann, A.; cellulitis, folliculitis decalvans, alopecia areata) as well as neoplastic and systemic diseases (such Wa´skiel-Burnat,A.; Zółkiewicz,˙ J.; as cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, scalp metastasis of breast cancer, anorexia nervosa, malnutrition, Blicharz, L.; Rakowska, A.; Goldust, M.; Olszewska, M.; Rudnicka, L.
