Joubert Syndrome 2; Jbts2
Description
Joubert syndrome is a genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a specific hindbrain malformation, which is referred to as the 'molar tooth sign' (MTS) on brain MRI, hypotonia, developmental delay, oculomotor apraxia, and breathing abnormalities. The complex brainstem malformation consists of cerebellar vermian hypoplasia/aplasia, thickened and reoriented superior cerebellar peduncles, and an abnormally large interpeduncular fossa, giving the appearance of a molar tooth on transaxial slices (Maria et al., 1997). Additional features sometimes associated with Joubert syndrome include retinal anomalies, polydactyly, hepatic fibrosis, and renal disease. These related disorders are often referred to as 'cerebellooculorenal syndromes' (CORSs) (Chance et al., 1999; Satran et al., 1999).
