Incidence is about 1:3000 to 1:10.000 of all live newborns. The contractures, which can occur at delivery and are non progressive. It affects both sexes. Most of the cases have causes, for now are unknown. However, this disorder can be provoked from neuropathic and myopathic diseases or some another cause that decreases the mobility of fetal joints. Great joints of both extremities are more attacked. The muscles of the extremities that are attacked can be hypoplastic. Also, the IQ of these children multiplex congenita, that has been resuscitated in delivery room and endotracheal intubation was needed. can be affected. We have presented a newborn female, born in term, by normal delivery, with arthrogryposis In utero, there has been a suspicion from the gynecologists at the end of pregnancy, for esophageal atresia. After delivery, all the needed consults and examinations have been realized. After three weeks in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, the baby has been discharged in a better general condition, with recommendations to further consultations with orthopedics, physiatrician and pediatrician-neurologists. Key words: arthrogryposis, multiple contractures of joints, congenital defect Introduction Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita refers to a heterogeneous group of congenital defects that manifests with multiple joint contractures (1).

  • Right Amelia in a Patient with Neurofibromatosis Type 1
    J Surg Med. 2020;4(3):240-242. Case report DOI: 10.28982/josam.630597 Olgu sunumu Right amelia in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1 Nörofibromatozis tip 1’li hastada sağ amelia Hilal Aydın 1 1 Department of Pediatric Neurology, Faculty of Abstract Medicine, Balikesir University, Balikesir, Turkey Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) affects many different systems such as the skeletal, endocrine, gastrointestinal ORCID ID of the author(s) systems, as well as the skin, peripheral and central nervous systems (CNS). The NF-1 gene, located in the 11p12 region HA: 0000-0002-2448-1270 of chromosome 17, encodes a tumor suppressor protein, called neurofibromin, and is expressed in a diverse range of cell and tissue types. Neurofibromin negatively regulates the activity of an intracellular signaling molecule, p21ras (Ras), acting as a GTPase-activating protein (Ras-GAP). The Ras-GAP function of neurofibromin has been associated with various NF1-related clinical symptoms. We aimed to present a case of clinically and genetically diagnosed neurofibromatosis type 1 with a developmental anomaly in the right hand (right hand amelia). Our knowledge about whether the coexistence of these two conditions is coincidental or a result of neurofibromatosis is limited. We wanted to present this case since the coexistence of amelia and neurofibromatosis is a first.

Correspondence to: A/Prof. Suresh Chandran. Senior Consultant, Department of Neonatology, KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital, Singapore 229899, Singapore. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Poland’s syndrome (PS) is a rare musculoskeletal congenital anomaly with a wide spectrum of presentations. It is typically characterized by hypoplasia or aplasia of pectoral muscles, mammary hypoplasia and variably associated ipsilateral limb anomalies. Limb defects can vary in severity, ranging from syndactyly to phocomelia. Most cases are sporadic but familial cases with intrafamilial variability have been reported. Several theories have been proposed regarding the genesis of PS. Vascular disruption theory, “the subclavian artery supply disruption sequence” (SASDS) remains the most accepted pathogenic mechanism. Clinical presentations can vary in severity from syndactyly to phocomelia in the limbs and in the thorax, rib defects to severe chest wall anomalies with impaired lung function.

  • Amyoplasia Or Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita [AMC]
    Arthrogryposis (Amyoplasia or Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita [AMC]) David S. Feldman, MD Chief of Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery Professor of Orthopedic Surgery & Pediatrics NYU Langone Medical Center & NYU Hospital for Joint Diseases OVERVIEW The word “arthrogryposis” is actually a catch-all term used to describe instances of joint contractures that are present at birth. Treatment varies according to the cause and severity of the condition but when treatment begins at an early age, children can gradually become stronger and experience improved joint mobility and function that can last the rest of their lives. DESCRIPTION Arthrogryposis is a rare medical condition that only occurs in about 1 in 10,000 live births. The condition is characterized by malformed or stiff joints, muscles, and tendons that result in arms, legs, hands, and / or feet having limited to no mobility. The cognitive function of children with the condition is not affected. In fact, they are often extremely bright and communicative. CAUSES There is no one specific cause of arthrogryposis but the most common causes are genetics and intrauterine viruses. Genetic causes often only involve the hands and feet while other causes typically result in more generalized weakness and contractures. DIAGNOSIS METHODS Arthrogryposis tends to be found in its most severe form during newborn examinations. Given the various possible causes of arthrogryposis, proper diagnosis plays a very important role in determining treatment. Diagnosis methods may include MRI, muscle biopsies, blood tests, DNA testing, studies, and / or observations. TREATMENT Arthrogryposis may require very complex treatment and should therefore only be undertaken by health professionals who are not just familiar with the disease but have a high level of expertise in treating arthrogrypotic patients.

  • Blueprint Genetics Craniosynostosis Panel
    Craniosynostosis Panel Test code: MA2901 Is a 38 gene panel that includes assessment of non-coding variants. Is ideal for patients with craniosynostosis. About Craniosynostosis Craniosynostosis is defined as the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures leading to secondary distortion of skull shape. It may result from a primary defect of ossification (primary craniosynostosis) or, more commonly, from a failure of brain growth (secondary craniosynostosis). Premature closure of the sutures (fibrous joints) causes the pressure inside of the head to increase and the skull or facial bones to change from a normal, symmetrical appearance resulting in skull deformities with a variable presentation. Craniosynostosis may occur in an isolated setting or as part of a syndrome with a variety of inheritance patterns and reccurrence risks. Craniosynostosis occurs in 1/2,200 live births.

PANDYA, AND DARAB K. DASTUR From the Children's Orthopaedic Hospital, and the Neuropathology Unit, J.J. Group of Hospitals, Bombay-8, India SUMMARY Sixteen cases with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita were examined clinically and electromyographically; three of them were re-examined later. Joint deformities were present in all extremities in 13 of the cases; in eight there was some degree of mental retardation. In two cases, there was clinical and electromyographic evidence of a myopathic disorder. In the majority, the appearances of the shoulder-neck region suggested a developmental defect. At the same time, selective weakness of muscles innervated by C5-C6 segments suggested a neuropathic disturbance. EMG revealed, in eight of 13 cases, clear evidence of denervation of muscles, but without any regenerative activity. The non-progressive nature of this disorder and capacity for improvement in muscle bulk and power suggest that denervation alone cannot explain the process. Re-examination of three patients after two to three years revealed persistence of the major deformities and muscle Protected by copyright. weakness noted earlier, with no appreciable deterioration.
