Extractions: 1. Medical Manifestations: A. Skeletal System i. Mild to moderate short stature (dwarfism) ii. Short lower arms (mesomelic brachymelia) iii. Small hands with clinodactyly usually of the fifth finger (abnormal lateral or medial bending of one or more fingers or toes) and brachydactyly (abnormally short fingers or toes) iv. Small feet B. Spinal Malformations i. Vertebral segmentation defects ii. Dominant - at most a single butterfly vertebra iii. Recessive - multiple vertebral segmentation defects (always multiple rib anomalies, fusions). iv. Hemivertebrae, vertebral fusions, narrow interpediculate distances most common in the recessive form. v. Possible - spinal cord tethering C. Abnormalities of the Head and Facial Area (craniofacial, fetal face) i. Flat facial profile with larger head (macrocephaly not necessarily associated with hydrocephaly)

Extractions: Medfødt misdannelse, der oftest er dominant arvelig men kan være recessiv. Sygdommen viser sig ved speciel ansigtsform (fremstående pande, vidtstillede øjne), korte arme og ben (dværgvækst) og - hos drenge - underudviklet eller manglende penis. Efter puberteten sker der en vis udvikling af penis, og samleje er oftest mulig. Mental udviklingshæmning kan forekomme. Kirurgisk behandling kan komme på tale. Livslængden er normal. John Østergaard Kontakt til andre: Center for Små Handicapgruppers kontaktordning er et tilbud til mennesker med sjældne sygdomme og handicap, som ikke har en forening eller andet netværk i Danmark at henvende sig til. Via kontaktordningen tilbyder vi at formidle kontakt mellem personer eller familier, der lever med samme sjældne handicap.

Extractions: ROR2 Mutations Cause Brachydactyly Type B and Robinow Syndrome (MIM*602337) belongs to a family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), characterized by a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase (TK) domain, a distally located serine-threonine-rich and proline-rich domains and distinct extracellular domains. is essential for normal chondrocyte differentiation and mice with inactivated Ror2 alleles, exhibit a severe skeletal phenotype with foreshortened and misshapen bones and abnormal growth plate morphology. mutations have been identified in dominant brachydactyly type B (BDB) and recessive Robinow syndrome. BDB is caused by heterozygous nonsense or frameshift mutations located distally and proximally of the TK domain. These mutations lead to truncation of the intracellular serine-threonine-rich, and proline-rich domains, or of the entire intracellular portion of the receptor. In contrast missense or nonsense mutations leading to amino acid exchange or truncation of extracellular domains of , truncation within the TK domain, or selective inactivation of TK activity lead to autosomal recessive Robinow syndrome.

Receptor tyrosine kinase Ror2 is mutated in Robinow syndrome and brachydactyly type B - molecular pathology and normal function Brachydactyly is shortening of the digits due to abnormal development of the phalanges and/or metacarpals. It may occur as an isolated trait or as part of complex malformation syndromes. According to their patterns of skeletal involvement heritable brachydactylies have been classified into the subtypes A to E (Bell 1951). Autosomal dominant brachydactyly type B (BDB; MIM113000) is readily distinguished from other brachydactylies by the characteristic shortening/hypoplasia of the distal phalanges, the occurrences of nail dysplasia, hypoplasia of middle phalanges, and variable degrees of distal and proximal symphalangism. Broad thumbs with or without distal duplication/clefts and syndactyly can be additional findings. Robinow syndrome is a rare skeletal dysplasia with mesomelic shortening of the limbs, small stature, vertebral malformations and hypogenitalism. Both syndromes, brachydactyly type B as well as Robinow syndrome have been shown to be caused by mutations in ROR2. Our studies aim at the functional analysis of Ror2 during development.

Extractions: Robinow et al (1969) described a short stature syndrome in 6 generations of a family but with no instance of male to male transmission - Interorbital distance was increased and the teeth were malaligned - Achondroplasia was suggested; however, the spine and pelvic radiologic findings were nearly normal - Similarities to the Aarskog Scott syndrome (305400) were noteworthy - Friedman ((1985) described the distinctive umbilical changes of Aarskog syndrome, Rieger syndrome (180500), and Robinow syndrome.

Extractions: Gene Map Locus: Xp11.21 - Aarskog (1970) described an X linked disorder characterized by ocular hypertelorism, anteverted nostrils, broad upper lip, and peculiar penoscrotal relations ('saddle bag scrotum' or 'shawl scrotum'). Affected males can reproduce - Scott (1971) emphasized the occurrence of ligamentous laxity manifest by hyperextensibility of the fingers, genu recurvatum, and flat feet - Tyrkus et al (1980) described mother and son with Aarskog Scott syndrome - Expression was complete in the mother - The mother and son had a reciprocal translocation between the X chromosome and chromosome 8 - Fryns (1992) concluded that the incidence of mental handicap in Aarskog syndrome may be as high as 30%.
