    Aase-Smith syndrome Also known as:
    Aase’s syndrome
    Synonyms:
    Anaemia-congenital triphalangeal thumb syndrome, anaemia-triphalangeal thumb syndrome, distal arthrogryposis type IIB syndrome, syndrome of joint contractures with other abnormalities, triphalangeal thumb-hypoplastic anaemia syndrome, triphalangeal thumb syndrome.
    Associated persons: Jon Morton Aase David Weyhe Smith Description: A familial deformity syndrome of variable expressivity, characterised by congenital hypoplastic anaemia and connatal triphalangy of the thumbs. Other features may be hydrocephalus with Dandy-Walker anomaly, cleft palate, and multiple contractures of the joints, narrow shoulders. Occur in males; present from birth. The syndrome was originally described in two male siblings. Some writers consider this and the Diamond-Blackfan syndrome to be the same entity. Inheritance is probably autosomal recessive.

    Signs and tests:
    Treatment: Frequent blood transfusions are given in the first year of life to treat anemia . Prednisone may be given, although this should be avoided in infancy because of side effects on growth and brain development. A

    Aase syndrome
    Alternative Names: Aase-Smith syndrome
    Treatment: Frequent blood transfusions are given in the first year of life to treat anemia . Prednisone may be given, although this should be avoided in infancy because of side effects on growth and brain development. A bone marrow transplant may be necessary if other treatment fails.
    Expectations (prognosis): Anemia usually resolves over the years.
    Complications:
    • Complications related to anemia include weakness fatigue , and decreased oxygenation of the blood. Decreased white blood cells alter the body's ability to fight infection. If a heart defect exists, it may cause multiple complications (depending on the specific defect). Severe cases have been associated with still birth or early death.

    Calling your health care provider: Call your health care provider if you notice possible signs of Aase syndrome in your child. Genetic counseling is recommended if there is a family history of Aase syndrome.
