Conditions with this feature

Ciliary dyskinesia, primary, 43
MedGen UID:
1684675
Concept ID:
C5231466
Disease or Syndrome
Primary ciliary dyskinesia-43 (CILD43) is a disorder characterized by a defect in motile cilia and ciliary clearance resulting in the onset of respiratory insufficiency soon after birth, and associated with recurrent upper and lower respiratory infections with chronic progressive lung disease. Patients with this disorder also develop significant obstructive hydrocephalus requiring shunting in infancy, although adult onset of neurologic symptoms may occur. Other more variable features include infertility and about a 50% chance of situs inversus or other left-right asymmetry defects. The disorder is considered to be a type of ciliopathy known as 'reduced generation of multiple motile cilia' (RGMC) (summary by Wallmeier et al., 2019). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of primary ciliary dyskinesia, CILD1 (244400).
Coffin-Siris syndrome 12
MedGen UID:
1782096
Concept ID:
C5444111
Disease or Syndrome
Coffin-Siris syndrome-12 (CSS12) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by global developmental delay with variably impaired intellectual development, speech and language delay, and behavioral abnormalities, such as autism or hyperactivity. Affected individuals may have hypotonia and poor feeding in infancy. There are variable dysmorphic facial features, although most patients do not have the classic hypoplastic fifth digit/nail abnormalities that are often observed in other forms of CSS (Barish et al., 2020). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Coffin-Siris syndrome, see CSS1 (135900).
Intellectual developmental disorder, autosomal dominant 65
MedGen UID:
1787923
Concept ID:
C5543371
Disease or Syndrome
Autosomal dominant intellectual developmental disorder-65 (MRD65) is characterized by delayed motor and speech acquisition, variably impaired intellectual development, and behavioral abnormalities. Affected individuals also have dysmorphic facial features. Brain imaging may be normal or may show abnormalities, including cerebellar hypoplasia, poor development of the corpus callosum, dysmorphic hippocampus, and polymicrogyria. Feeding difficulties, hypotonia, and seizures may also be observed (Duncan et al., 2020).
Hydrocephalus, congenital, 5, susceptibility to
MedGen UID:
1840908
Concept ID:
C5830272
Finding
Congenital hydrocephalus-5 (HYC5) is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by hydrocephalus associated with aqueductal stenosis apparent from birth. Some patients may have neurodevelopmental delay, seizures, or structural brain abnormalities (Furey et al., 2018). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of congenital hydrocephalus, see 233600.
