DOJ Contents English Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome, Type II (Langer-Giedion Syndrome) Helen T Shin and Mary Wu Chang Dermatology Online Journal 7(2): 8 The Ronald O. Perelman Department of Dermatology, New York University Medical Center, New York, New York Abstract Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is characterized by its unique facial features and skeletal abnormalities. A bulbous, pear-shaped nose, elongated philtrum, sparse hair, cone-shaped epiphyses and mild growth retardation are found in both type I (TRPSI) and type II (TRPSII). TRPSII can be distinguished from TRPSI when multiple exostoses or redundant skin are present. While TRPSI is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion, most cases of TRPSII are sporadic although there are a few cases which are familial. The following is a case report of TRPSII with incomplete penetrance in the index case and exostoses and growth retardation in the patient¹s two siblings. Case Report Figure 1 Figure 2 Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome, type II. Note the sparseness of hair, low set ears with flattened helices, bulbous nose, elongated philtrum, thin upper lip and micrognathia. A 14 year old female presented to the pediatric dermatology clinic with dysmorphic features and skeletal anomalies. She was born at 35 weeks gestation with a birthweight of 2358 grams, with dysmorphic features noted at birth. Radiographic studies of the hands at one month of age showed lateral subluxation at the metacarpophalangeal joints of the fourth and fifth digits with markedly delayed bone age. She had a history of growth and developmental delay and several dislocated joints for which she had received multiple orthopedic interventions. In addition, she had a conductive hearing loss. Corrective surgeries included bilateral ptosis repair, jaw advancement, chin implant and club foot repair.Chromosomal analysis revealed a fragile site on chromosome 8. Her parents were nonconsanginous and her sister and half brother had multiple asymptomatic exostoses and short stature.

Just what is Langer-Giedion Syndrome? By Dan Wells, PhD. Houston Langer-Giedion Syndrome (Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome, Type II) is a rare genetic disorder caused by a small deletion on the long arm of chromosome 8 . It is what scientists call a contiguous gene syndrome , because more than one gene within the same location is affected, and each altered gene is responsible for some of the overall characteristics. Two genes are known to be affected in LGS. One is called Hereditary Multiple Exostoses Type 1 (EXT1). Deletion of this gene causes an independent disorder of the same name (EXT1), which is characterized by benign bony growths on various bones of the body. The second gene involved in LGS is Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome, Type I (TRPSI). Loss of this gene causes a separate condition TRPSI characterized by cone-shaped extensions on the growing ends (epiphyses) of certain bones, particularly in the hands, and specific craniofacial features. While some of the literature still places these genes in the region 8q24.11-q24.13, my best estimate is that both are located in band 8q24.11. LGS is caused by the functional loss of these two genes, and people with LGS generally have clinical features of both conditions. So a simple way of thinking of LGS is as a combined syndrome in which people have both EXT1 and TRPSI.

Dictionaries: General Computing Medical Legal Encyclopedia Langer-Giedion syndrome Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition Langer-Giedion syndrome is named after the two doctors who undertook the main research into the condition in the 1960s. It is a very rare condition and diagnosis is usually made at birth or in early childhood. The syndrome is caused by a small deletion of chromosomal A chromosome is, minimally, a very long, continuous piece of DNA, which contains many genes, regulatory elements and other intervening nucleotide sequences. In the chromosomes of eukaryotes, the uncondensed DNA exists in a quasi-ordered structure inside the nucleus, where it wraps around histones (structural proteins, Fig. 1), and where this composite material is called chromatin. During mitosis Click the link for more information. material. In Langer-Giedion syndrome a small piece of the eighth chromosome’s long arm is missing, comprising a number of genes The word " gene " is shared by many disciplines, including whole organism-based or classical genetics, molecular genetics, evolutionary biology and population genetics. It has multiple uses within each of these contexts, but in the primary sense, genes are material things that parents pass to offspring during reproduction; these things encode information essential for the construction and regulation of polypeptides, proteins and other molecules essential for the growth and functioning of the organism. This sense, which is common to all of the above disciplines, is also the original historical meaning of gene.
