An Expert Speaks Out About HH One is from a genetic mutation on chromosome 7 leading to a genetic syndrome,pallisterhall syndrome which consist of extra fingers, toes and others. http://www.geocities.com/hhugs2001/liow.htm
Extractions: Dr Kore Liow, formerly of the National Institutes of Health, and now Medical Director of the Comprehensive Epilepsy Center at Via Christi Health System, Wichita, Kansas, writes: HH is only one of a few pathology that can cause gelastic seizures. Others being temporal lobe seizure, infantile spasm, angelmann's syndrome, hypothalamic gliomas, tumors of the third ventricles and so on. The development of HH appear to have at least 2 different mechanisms. One is from a genetic mutation on chromosome 7 leading to a genetic syndrome, Pallister-Hall syndrome which consist of extra fingers, toes and others. The children of these patients will have a 50% chance of inheriting the syndrome. The mechanism for HH development in the sporadic group is still unclear but we are screening them with genetic blood tests. Do they have a common pathway? Is there any environmental/toxic factors that need to be considered? These are questions that will be investigated in my study.

Hall-Pallister Syndrome (www.whonamedit.com) Also known as pallisterhall syndrome Synonyms Congenital hypothalamic hamartoblastoma,hamartopolydactyly syndrome, hypothalamic hamartoblastoma http://www.whonamedit.com/synd.cfm/506.html
Extractions: Congenital hypothalamic hamartoblastoma, hamartopolydactyly syndrome, hypothalamic hamartoblastoma-hyperphalangeal hypoendocrine-hypoplastic anus (4H) syndrome, microphallus-imperforate anus syndactyly-hamartoblastoma-abnormal lung lobulation-polydactyly (MISHAP) syndrome, renal-anal-lung-polydactyly-hamartoblastoma (RALPH) syndrome. Distinct malformation with hamartoma in the hypothalamus tract, hypopituitarism, imperforate anus and postaxial polydactyly. Some patients also exhibit laryngeal clefts, abnormal lung lobulation, renal agenesis and/or renal dysplasia, short fourth metacarpals, congenital heart defect, and growth retardation. Death usually occurs within the first weeks of life. According to some writers this is a sporadic condition; according to others it is an autosomal dominant trait. Maternal insecticide and pesticide exposure were reported in some instances. The condition is extremely rare.
