RESUMO

Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a group of monogenic disorders that accounts for 1% to 5% of diabetes. The most common mutations are those in the hepatocyte nuclear factor-1-alpha (HNF-1-alpha) and in the glucokinase (GCK) genes. Although management of MODY is well established, no guidelines currently exist for management during pregnancy. Both maternal glycemic control and fetal mutation status are factors that may influence outcomes during pregnancy. The primary aim of this project was to describe cases of MODY during pregnancy to highlight the clinical implications of management of this disorder during pregnancy. The Ottawa Hospital is the primary referral centre for high-risk obstetrical patients, including those with diabetes in pregnancy, in Ottawa, Canada. Referrals between 2008 and 2018 were reviewed and a case series of three women and five pregnancies is described. Together with the illustrative cases, a literature review of MODY in pregnancy is used to highlight clinical considerations unique to MODY in pregnancy. We describe 5 pregnancies with MODY-2 (GCK mutation) and MODY 3 (HNF-1-alpha mutation). Important issues identified included monitoring of fetal growth and individualization of maternal glycemic control, particularly in cases where fetal mutation status is unknown. Management of MODY in pregnancy is challenging and there is little evidence to guide recommendations. Fetal growth can be used to guide management of maternal glycemic targets when fetal mutation status is unknown.

RESUMO

Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP) is an autosomal-recessive disorder resulting from mutations in one of three peroxisomal genes essential for ether lipid biosynthesis, PEX7 (RCDP1), GNPAT (RCDP2), and AGPS (RCDP3). Affected patients have characteristic features including shortening of the proximal long bones, epiphyseal stippling, bilateral cataracts, growth and developmental delays. Whereas the majority of patients have RCDP type 1, around 5% have RCDP type 2 or 3. We identified a patient with RCDP type 2 and an apparent homozygous deletion, c.1428delC, after full sequencing of his GNPAT genes. The father was heterozygous for this mutation, while sequencing of the maternal GNPAT genes revealed only wild-type sequence. Southern analyses performed on parental gDNA did not show evidence of a maternal gene deletion. Amplification and fragment analysis of dinucleotide repeat markers spanning chromosome 1 in the patient and both parents revealed paternal uniparental inheritance. We discuss the potential mechanisms causing uniparental disomy (UPD) in this patient and review the literature on chromosome 1 UPD. The absence of non-RCDP clinical features in this patient was consistent with previous literature supporting the absence of imprinted genes on chromosome 1. This first description of RCDP caused by UPD dramatically changes the parental recurrence risk, highlighting the value of obtaining parental genotypes when the proband has a putative homozygous mutation by sequence analysis.
