ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic basis for a pedigree affected with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease through high-throughput sequencing.@*METHODS@#Potential variants of the genes associated with CMT were screened by next-generation sequencing (NGS) of the members of the pedigree.@*RESULTS@#NGS has revealed that the two affected sisters both harbored homozygous c.1A>G variant of the GDAP1 gene, which caused replacement of the first amino acid Methionine by Valine (p.Met1Val). Their parents were both carriers of the heterozygous c.1A>G variant. The variant was unreported previously and has an extremely low frequency in the population. Meanwhile, one of the sisters and the mother also carried heterozygous c.710A>T variant of the BAG3 gene.@*CONCLUSION@#The homozygous c.1A>G variant of the GDAP1 gene probably underlay the CMT in both children. Above result has enabled clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling for this pedigree.

ABSTRACT

El síndrome FATCO, por las siglas en inglés de aplasia fibular (Fibular Aplasia), campomelia de tibia (Tibial Campomelia) y oligosindactilia (Oligosyndactyly), es un conjunto de malformaciones óseas, en las que la alteración se centra en los huesos de la pierna. Es una entidad rara y hay pocos casos descritos en la Literatura internacional, y, hasta ahora, no se ha descrito ningún caso en Colombia. Presentamos aquí el caso de un recién nacido de sexo masculino con signos clínicos de manera prenatal y posnatal consistentes con síndrome FATCO sin otras malformaciones asociadas. Exponemos también una breve discusión sobre las diferentes malformaciones óseas y otros casos de FATCO en el mundo.


The FATCO syndrome, (Fibular Aplasia, Tibial Campomelia and Oligosyndactyly) are bone malformations with main alteration in lower limbs. It is a rare entity and there are few cases reported in international literature, and so far there are not published cases in Colombia. Here we present a case of a male newborn with prenatal and postnatal signs consistent with FATCO syndrome without other organs malformations, and there is a brief discussion about this syndrome and other different malformations associated with it.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN La sirenomelia constituye una anomalía congénita rara. Su incidencia es de 1:60.000 nacidos vivos. Es causada por un defecto vascular disruptivo y caracterizado por la fusión de las extremidades inferiores, asociados a anomalías cardiacas, renales, de pared abdominal y torácica, vértebras inferiores, tubo digestivo inferiores, genitales y de las arterias umbilicales. Se presenta la experiencia de un caso de sirenomelia que se ha podido diagnosticar con la ecografia prenatal.


ABSTRACT Sirenomelia is a very rare congenic anomaly. Being its incidence of approximately 1:60.000 live born, caused by a vascular disruptive defect, characterized by the fusion of lower limbs, associated to cardiac, renal, abdominal wall, and thoracic anomalies; also characterized by inferior vertebrae, inferior digestive tract, genital and umbilical artery anomalies A case of sirenomelia has been diagnosed thanks to prenatal echography.

ABSTRACT

CONTEXT: The association between fibular dimelia and mirror polydactyly of the foot is considered to be a very rare lower-limb abnormality. On the other hand, VACTERL is an acronym for a nonrandom association of congenital anomalies for which the etiology is still poorly understood. CASE REPORT: The patient was a seven-month-old white girl whose mother had used misoprostol in the second month of pregnancy to induce abortion. On clinical evaluation, she was small for her age and presented hypotonia, anteverted nares, long philtrum and carp-like mouth. Her left hand had a reduction defect, with absence of the extremities of the second, third and fifth fingers and camptodactyly of the fourth finger. The ipsilateral lower limb presented significant shortening, especially rhizomelic shortening. Her left foot had a mirror configuration with seven toes and no identifiable hallux. The pelvis was hypoplastic. Esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula and imperforate anus were detected during the neonatal period. Abdominal ultrasound identified agenesis of the right kidney and left pyelocaliceal duplication. Radiographic evaluation on the left side showed iliac and femoral hypoplasia, absence of the tibia with a duplicated fibula and seven metatarsals and toes with no identifiable hallux on the foot. Echocardiography demonstrated an atrial septal defect. Based on the literature, we believe that the spectrum of malformations presented by our patient may be related to the vascular disruptive effect of the misoprostol. However, we cannot rule out the possibility that this association might simply be a coincidence.


CONTEXTO: A associação entre dimelia fibular e polidactilia em espelho do pé é considerada uma anormalidade de membro inferior bastante rara. Por outro lado, VACTERL é um acrônimo para uma associação não aleatória de anomalias congênitas cuja etiologia ainda é pouco compreendida. RELATO DO CASO: A paciente era uma menina branca de sete meses de idade, cuja mãe utilizou misoprostol no segundo mês de gravidez para indução de aborto. Na avaliação clínica, ela era pequena para a idade e apresentava hipotonia, narinas antevertidas, filtro longo e boca em carpa. A mão esquerda apresentava um defeito de redução com ausência das extremidades do segundo, terceiro e quinto dedos e camptodactilia do quarto. O membro inferior ipsilateral apresentava um importante encurtamento, especialmente rizomélico. O pé possuía uma configuração em espelho com sete dedos e nenhum hálux identificável. A pelve era hipoplásica. Atresia de esôfago com fístula traqueoesofágica e imperfuração anal foram detectadas durante o período neonatal. O ultrassom abdominal identificou agenesia do rim direito e duplicidade pielocalicial à esquerda. A avaliação radiográfica mostrou, no lado esquerdo, hipoplasia do osso ilíaco e do fêmur, ausência da tíbia com duplicação da fíbula, e presença de sete metatarsos e dedos, sem um hálux identificável, no pé. A ecocardiografia identificou um defeito do septo atrial. Acreditamos, com base na literatura, que o espectro de anormalidades apresentado por nossa paciente possa estar relacionado com o efeito disruptivo vascular do misoprostol. Entretanto, não podemos excluir a possibilidade de que essa associação possa ter sido simplesmente uma coincidência.

ABSTRACT

Fibular Hemimelia is a rare congenital disorder of deficiency to complete absence of fibula. It has been associated with post axial skeletal anomalies like shortening of femur, absence of lateral rays of foot and syndactyle, polydactyle etc. We report this case because of associated amniotic constriction bands over both the forearm, suggesting amniotic bands may be one of the causal factors of Fibular Hemimelia due to insult to the growing limb bud.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: O arqueamento das pernas geralmente é atribuído ao raquitismo causado pela carência de vitamina D; portanto, várias crianças afetadas acabam sendo classificadas erroneamente e tratadas inadequadamente. Este caso ilustra como uma avaliação clínica e radiológica cuidadosa pode levar à elucidação de sua causa. DESCRIÇÃO: Relatamos um caso esporádico de um menino de 2 anos de idade que apresentou achados radiológicos compatíveis com síndrome de Weismann-Netter-Stuhl. Além disso, observamos o complexo de malformação craniovertebral. O paciente possuía inteligência normal. Até onde sabemos, a combinação de síndrome de Weismann-Netter-Stuhl e occipitalização do atlas hipoplásico e posterior fusão das vértebras C2 e C3 nunca foi relatada antes. Descrevemos o diagnóstico da síndrome de Weismann-Netter-Stuhl. As características clássicas da síndrome de Weismann-Netter-Stuhl são baixa estatura, retardamento mental (em alguns indivíduos), calcificação da dura-máter e arqueamento anterior da tíbia. Todavia, acreditamos que um exame clínico e radiológico cuidadoso possa revelar dados mais contundentes que poderiam influenciar positivamente o processo de tratamento. COMENTARIOS: Presumimos que as limitações congênitas dos movimentos do pescoço em nosso paciente surgiram por causa da fusão acentuada do osso occipital ao atlas hipoplásico e da fusão simultânea da segunda e terceira vértebras. Portanto, se desconsiderarmos esse tipo de malformação, a estrutura atlanto-axial poderá ser comprometida, o que poderá causar complicações neurológicas sérias e até mesmo fatais. A tomografia tem um papel crucial na detecção dessas anormalidades.

ABSTRACT

Bilateral femoral agenesis is a rare anomaly. To the best of our knowledge, only three cases of simple congenital anomaly and three cases associated with femoral facial syndrome have been reported. Here, we describe a simple form of bilateral femoral agenesis observed in one of the 2 dead fetuses delivered after termination of a 24-week twin pregnancy of a normal mother. Post-mortem x-ray examination confirmed the agenesis of both femurs and also left fibula

ABSTRACT

Os autores reavaliaram 17 pacientes portadores de Hemimelia Fibular (HF), sendo um paciente com comprometimento bilateral. Este estudo teve como objetivo básico comparar os achados clínicos e radiográficos de nossos pacientes com as descrições encontradas na literatura. Estes indivíduos foram avaliados no período de 1987 a 1996. A faixa etária variou de três a 10 anos, com média 6,1 anos. Dez pacientes eram do sexo feminino e sete masculinos, oito brancos e nove não brancos. Entre as deficiências longitudinais dos membros inferiores, a Hemimelia Fibular representa uma das malformações congênitas mais freqüente. A classificação utilizada foi a descrita por Achterman & Kalamchi (1979). Devido a alta incidência de Deficiência Femoral Proximal Focal (DFPF) associada a esta malformação achamos adequado adotarmos a classificação de Kalamchi e cols. (1985) para esta deformidade. Utilizando a classificação proposta, nossa distribuição mostrou que 5,5 por cento pertenciam ao Tipo IA, 55,5 por cento Tipo IB e 39 por cento Tipo II.

ABSTRACT

El carcinoma epidermoide es una neoplasia maligna que se origina del epitelio; en algunas ocasiones se presenta asociada a la osteomielitis crónica: El sitio de mayor presencia es la tibia. Es de difícil diagnóstico dado que se asocia a úlceras generalmente infectadas, con problemas de cicatrización. El diagnóstico histopatológico también es complejo por la gran metaplasia celular que se produce en las úlceras. Un dato que apoya el diagnóstico es la dificultad para la cicatrización a pesar del tratamiento. El diagnóstico se consigue con biopsias de diferentes sitios de la úlcera y el tratamiento generalmente tiene que ser radical. Se reporta un caso de carcinoma epidermoide

ABSTRACT

To elucidate the clinical spectrum of fibular hemimelia and discuss management issues. Design: Retrospective Hospital based case series involving five cases of Paraxial Fibular Hemimelia. Setting: Surgical Ward, Department of Paediatric Surgery, Children's Hospital, P. I. M. S. Subjects: Five consecutive cases of Fibular Hemimelia studied in the Paediatric Surgery Department. Main Outcome Measures: Clinical extent of the limb deformity, functional disability, associated malformations. All the patients were males. Average age of patients at the time of presentation was 4.2 months. 80% [n=4] of the patients had unilateral limb deficiency, while one patient [Case#4] had bilateral limb deficiency. Most of the cases had associated skeletal abnormalities. The most common associated abnormality was absence of lateral rays of foot in the same limb. Conclusions: Management of these patients is a real challenge because of reluctance for any form of ablative surgery and poor facilities for artificial prosthesis. In older children, we advised conservative management with surgical shoes and splints

ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio restrospectivo en el cual se revisaron las historias de 6 pacientes, todos con diagnóstico de osteomielitis y pseudoartrosis infectada de Tibia, que fueron operados en el Hospital San Juan de Dios de Caracas entre 1973 y 1983 según la técnica descrita por Huntington y modificada por Davis y Mich, que consiste en la transposición del Peroné ipsilateral para corregir el defecto en la diálisis tibial. Todos usaron inmovilización postoperatoria con yeso inguinopédico por un período que osciló entre las 12 y 32 semanas, todos con un seguimiento promedio de 6 años.En todos se logró consolidación satisfactoria de los fragmentos con hipertrofia del injerto de Peroné
