FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL DYSTROPHY

Alternate names

FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL DYSTROPHY Is also known as fsh dystrophy, fshd, landouzy-dejerine myopathy, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, facioscapulohumeral myopathy

Description

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is characterized by progressive muscle weakness with focal involvement of the facial, shoulder and limb muscles.

Most common symptoms of FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL DYSTROPHY

  • Sensorineural hearing impairment
  • Skeletal muscle atrophy
  • Abnormality of cardiovascular system morphology
  • Elevated serum creatine phosphokinase
  • Hyperlordosis

FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY 2; FSHD2

Alternate names

FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY 2; FSHD2 Is also known as facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy 2, digenic, fshd1b, muscular dystrophy, facioscapulohumeral, type 2, fshd2, digenic, muscular dystrophy, facioscapulohumeral, type 1b

Description

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy is a form of muscular dystrophy characterized by muscle weakness that first affects the facial muscles and upper extremities, later progressing to involve the lower extremities. The pattern of weakness is usually asymmetric (summary by Lemmers et al., 2012).FSHD1 (OMIM ), which is clinically indistinguishable from FSHD2, is associated with contraction of the D4Z4 macrosatellite repeat (see {606009}) in the subtelomeric region of chromosome 4q35. The disease mechanisms of FSHD1 and FSHD2 converge at the level of D4Z4 chromatin relaxation and variegated expression of DUX4 in skeletal muscle (summary by Lemmers et al., 2012).

Most common symptoms of FACIOSCAPULOHUMERAL MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY 2; FSHD2

  • Hearing impairment
  • Sensorineural hearing impairment
  • Muscle weakness
  • Pain
  • Fatigue

Description

Arhinia-choanal atresia-microphthalmia is a malformation disorder characterized by complete or incomplete absence of nose (arrhinia), choanal atresia, microphthalmia, anophthalmia and cleft or high palate.

Most common symptoms of ARRHINIA-CHOANAL ATRESIA-MICROPHTHALMIA SYNDROME

  • Hearing impairment
  • Hypertelorism
  • Cleft palate
  • Cataract
  • Cryptorchidism

Description

This syndrome is characterized by the association of severe nasal hypoplasia, hypoplasia of the eyes, hyposmia, hypogeusia and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

Most common symptoms of HYPOSMIA-NASAL AND OCULAR HYPOPLASIA-HYPOGONADOTROPIC HYPOGONADISM SYNDROME

  • Cataract
  • Cryptorchidism
  • Blindness
  • Microphthalmia
