Ashley's Progeria diagnosis timeline information and photos Date of Birth
Date: May 23,1991
Time: 9:43 PM
Weight: 6 lbs 4 oz
July/91: At age of 2 months seen by a pediatrician for Scleroderma like skin changes and Perioral Cyanosis. A diagnosis of ASD (atrial septal defect) is made and Ashley is referred to a Cardiologist. Also a referral to a Dermatologist for the skin 'abnormality'. Genetics consultation however they had no explanation for Ashley's condition. August 13/91: Diagnosis of Scleroderma Morphia is made. At 8 months of age Ashley is referred back to the Genetics clinic by Pediatrician who had inquired to them of Progeria being a possibility. (I find out later that is was through an article in the Enquirer about Progeria that the Pediatrician had seen, the baby picture of the child featured looked remarkably like Ashley). At this time I am unaware of physicians concerns or possible diagnosis. Pediatrician comments how she is 'struck' by the general abnormality of Ashley's subcutaneous tissues. Very thin ear cartilage, protuberant eyes and poor subcutaneous tissues in general. Pediatrician sends Geneticist an excerpt from a genetics book which she says makes her even more suspicious of Progeria being a possibility. I (Lori) have been advised by Ashley's pediatrician that she would like to have Ashley reassessed.

Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Progeria is a rare condition but has come into public awareness because its symptoms strongly resemble normal human aging as well as the appearance of several affected children in movies on national television. Lamin A is the name of the gene recently identified as causing some types of progeria. Lamin A codes for a protein that surrounds the nucleus of cells. Further study of lamin A will hopefully answer why mutations in this gene cause such striking premature aging. Progeria results in rapid aging of children, beginning with growth failure during the first year of life that results in disproportionately small bodies given the size of their heads. The children are thin with baldness, wizened narrow faces, and old-appearing skin.

    Progeria is een groeistoornis. De naam komt uit het Grieks en het betekent ‘vroeger ouder worden’. Misschien kennen sommigen deze ziekte wel uit de film ‘Jack’ waarin Robin Williams de hoofdrol speelt. Eén op de honderd miljoen kinderen worden ermee geboren. Door een genetische afwijking gaat de levensduur sterk verminderen. Het is ook bekend als het Hutchinson-Gilford syndroom. Door deze zeldzame ziekte zullen deze kinderen razendsnel oud worden en maar kort zullen leven.
    1. De kenmerken:
    2. Fysieke problemen

    En niet alleen hun vreemde uiterlijk is voor progeria-patiënten een handicap. Al vroeg worden hun gewrichten stijf en krijgen ze te kampen met artrose [een soort gewricht ontsteking], hersensinfarcten en beroertes [bloeduitstorting in de hersenen]. Vele kinderen ondergaan tussen hun 12e en 15e levensjaar een hartaanval. Progeria is dan wel ongeneeslijk, maar dokters kunnen wel pijnstillers geven. Het is belangrijk dat deze kinderen tenminste pijnloos ouder kunnen worden. Met de pijnstillers ondervinden ze niet te veel hinder van hun stramme gewrichten of zwakke gestel.
    Bijna geen enkel progeria-patiënt wordt meerderjarig. De helft haalt niet eens zijn 13e verjaardag. Progeria-kinderen komen ook nooit in de puberteit en ontwikkelen geen geslachtshormonen.

    Progeria is a disease that makes my body get older 8 times faster than ordinary people. It is very rare and there are just 4 kids in the UK and only about 40 around the world. The average lifespan of children with Progeria is about 13. There is no cure.

    Progeria FAQ
    What is it?
    Progeria is commonly referred to as an "early aging disease." Although whether early aging actually occurs or whether this is a disease with many symptoms that look like aging is debated. It is also known as Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS), named after Jonathan Hutchinson, who first described the disease in 1886 and Hastings Gilford (1904), who was the first to refer to the disease as progeria ( National Library of Medicine, Progeria ). It is fortunately an extremely rare disease. Only somewhat more then 100 cases have been reported since it was discovered, and is estimated to affect only 1 to 2 children in 8 million. It is, however, a particularly tragic disease in that it typically strikes children before the age of 10 years, who then usually die before their teens. Patients have some characteristics of aging such as baldness, a pinched nose, delayed tooth formation, stiffness of joints, hip dislocations, cardiovascular problems, arteriosclerosis, wrinkled/aged-looking skin, and a premature cessation of growth (dwarfism). They do not, however, typically show other characteristics of aging such as Alzheimer's disease, and arthritis of the hips in these patients is a result of having been born with dislocated hips, not as an aging process ( Scientific American discussion Werner syndrome is a similar appearing disease, but it strikes people in their late teens. These patients may live until their 40s. Symptoms include scaly changes, especially in the extremities, cataracts, subcutaneous calcification, premature arteriosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, and wizened and prematurely aged facial features (

    Progeria is een aangeboren aandoening. De naam komt uit het Grieks en het betekent 'vroeger ouder worden'. Bij progeria is het proces van ouder worden versneld. Progeria wordt veroorzaakt door een verandering in het erfelijk materiaal ( mutatie Kinderen met Progeria komen meestal met een normaal geboortegewicht en een normale lengte ter wereld. Het versnelde ouder worden begint bij een leeftijd van ongeveer 1 à 2 jaar. Kenmerken van de veroudering zijn groeiachterstand, vermagering, haarverlies, veroudering van de huid, stijfheid van de gewrichten en hart- en vaataandoeningen. De uiteindelijke doodsoorzaak is meestal een hartaanval of een beroerte. Dit komt doordat er al snel arteriosclerose (het dichtslibben van de bloedvaten) optreedt. Diagnose
    Om de diagnose progeria te kunnen stellen is het van belang een vergelijking te maken met andere kinderen met progeria van dezelfde leeftijd. Sommige karakteristieke verschijnselen van de ziekte worden namelijk pas in de loop van de tijd duidelijk. Als progeria vermoed wordt kan bloed worden afgenomen voor genetisch onderzoek. Behandeling
    Progeria is niet te genezen. De behandeling bestaat uit het verlichten van de symptomen.
