Final Question |
What is the syndrome that can result from mutation in Endoglin?
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (Osler-Weber-Rendu)
Endoglin (ENG) or Activin receptor-like kinase-1 (ACK1, ACVRL1) -> proteins belonging to TGF-beta receptor complex that play a role in forming the vascular system
Telangiectasias, epistaxis, melena, AV malformations in liver, lung, CNS
What are the genes responsible for a syndrome with hair shaft findings of alternating bright and dark bands?
XPD=ERCC2 or XPB=ERCC3 (DB = Dark Bands)
Trichothiodystrophy or PIBIDS or Tay's Syndrome
Photosensitivity, Ichthyosis, Brittle hair, Intellectual impairment, Decreased fertility, Short stature
Reduced sulfur content in hair
Polarosocpy reveals tiger tail banding or trichothiodystrophy. Can also see trichoschisis, pili torti, trichorrhexis nodosa.
Photosensitivity but no increased risk of skin cancer.
This disorder is similar to XP with photosensitivity and neurologic degeneration, however in contrast to XP, there is neither premature aging nor skin cancer. Bird-headed facies, "Mickey Mouse" ears and dwarfism are hallmarks of this syndrome.
Cockayne Syndrome
Genes: CSA=ERCC8, CSB=ERCC6, XPG
Mnemonic: Walt Disney on cocaine
Spastic tetraplegia can be seen in which syndrome?
Sjögren–Larsson syndrome
FALDH (Fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase) deficiency (they fall down) --> accumulated fatty alcohol/aldehyde lipids
More common in Sweden
Triad of congenital ichthyosis, di- or tetraplegia, mental retardation
Perifovial glistening white dots (fall down, see stars), grand mall seizures.
What is the name for the condition which presents as painless, symmetric, woddy "peau d'orange" induration of the upper back and neck in long-standing type 2 diabetic obese males?
Scleredema Diabeticorum
Type 1 = Acute type secondary to strep pyogenes
Type 2 = Associated paraproteinemia
Type 3 = Type 2 DM
What is the name for the condition associated with a positive "prayer sign"
Diabetic Limited Joint Mobility = Cheiroarthropathy
Tightness and thickening of the skin and periarticular tissue of the fingers with resultant painless loss of joint mobility
Physical therapy and tight control of hyperglycemia
What is this lesion consisting of red-brown papules which progress to sharply demarcated yellow-brown atrophic, telangiectatic plaques with a violaceous, irregular border? Histology shows palisading granulomas containing degenerating collagen with inflammatory infiltrate containing plasma cells and multinucleated histiocytes.

Histology shows palisading granulomas containing degenerating collagen with inflammatory infiltrate containing plasma cells and multinucleated histiocytes.
Necrobiosis Lipoidica Diabeticorum (NLD)
Thought to be secondary to nonenzymatic glycosylation of dermal collagen and elastin.
Ulcer prevention. No impact of tight glucose control on developing NLD, but diabetics with NLD have higher rate of microvascular complications and limited joint mobility.
What is the syndrome caused by mutation sin Fibrillin 1 that results in aortic root aneurysms, rupture and dissection as well as mitral valve prolapse?
Marfan's Syndrome
Striae distensae, abdominal wall hernias, elastosis perforans serpiginosa, upward ectopia lentis, tall stature, hyperextensible joints, pectus excavatum, arachnodactyly, kyphoscoliosis, emphysema, pneumothorax, Gorlin sign
This autosomal recessively inherited condition results from deficiancy of cystathionine beta synthase.
Homocystinuria
Deficient cystathionine beta synthase -> elevated srum homocysteine -> inhibition of collagen cross-linking
Arterial and venous thromboses, generalized osteoporosis, mental retardation, downward ectopia lentis.
Tx: Avoid methionine and homocysteine. Supplement with cysteine, pyridoxine, folate, B12.
This autosomal dominantly inherited disorder results from a mutation in COL3A1 encoding procollagen type 3 which results in arterial, bowel and uterine rupture.
Ehlers-Danlos Type IV (Vascular Type)
Type 3 collagen abundant in skin, lungs and vasculature.
Thin, translucent, easily bruisable skin, thin nose and upper lip.
Joint mobility is normal, although atlantoaxial subluxation can occur.
This autosomal recessively inherited disorder is caused by a mutation in the RECQL2 gene which encodes a DNA helicase.
Werner Syndrome (Adult Progeria)
Growth arrest at puberty, premature aging/balding/graying, sclerodermoid appearance, poikiloderma, leg ulcers, painful callosities of feet and ankles, and cataracts by age 30
Premature cardiac atherosclerosis accounts for early death
Type 2 DM, tumors of uterus, breast, liver and thyroid.
What is the autosomal recessive disorder involving the peroxisomal enzyme phytanoyl-CoA hydroxylase with abnormalitites including ichthyosis, EKG changes, cardiomyopathy, deafness, anosmia, peripheral neuropathy, decreased deep tendon reflexes, cerebellar ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa?
