Extractions: (advertisement) Synonyms, Key Words, and Related Terms: TAR syndrome Background: Thrombocytopenia-absent radius (TAR) syndrome is a rare association of thrombocytopenia and bilateral radial aplasia first described in 1951. With some families having more than one member affected, an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern was proposed. TAR was defined as a syndrome in 1969 and further classified as the association of hypomegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia and absent radii. The expression varies and includes abnormalities in skeletal, gastrointestinal, hematologic, and cardiac systems. Pathophysiology: The association of seemingly disparate skeletal and hematologic abnormalities has been proposed to be related to the simultaneous development of the heart, radii, and megakaryocytes at 6-8 weeks gestation. The similarity to congenital rubella suggests intrauterine injury at the time of development of the involved systems, but a common etiologic agent has not been identified. Alternatively, the contiguous gene model proposes that phenotypic findings are related when genes responsible for each defect are geographically related within a chromosome. This would be independent of the anatomic association and the degree of involvement in either system. The abnormality or absence of radii means muscles that normally attach to the radius attach to carpal bones. The platelet abnormality reflects platelet hypoproduction, for which numerous explanatory theories have been proposed. One suggestion is that failure in production of humoral or cellular stimulators of megakaryocytopoiesis (eg, thrombopoietin) is responsible for inhibiting platelet production. However, recent studies by Sekine et al in 1998 and Ballmaier et al in 1997 have shown comparable or higher levels of thrombopoietin in patients with TAR, as compared to healthy controls.
