Ichthyosis and male hypogonadism

MedGen UID:
333456
Concept ID:
C1839989
Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: Ichthyosis, bilateral cryptorchidism, hypogenitalism and mental retardation
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0010623
OMIM®: 308200
Orphanet: ORPHA431

Clinical features

From HPO
Anosmia
MedGen UID:
1950
Concept ID:
C0003126
Finding
An inability to perceive odors. This is a general term describing inability to smell arising in any part of the process of smelling from absorption of odorants into the nasal mucous overlying the olfactory epithelium, diffusion to the cilia, binding to olfactory receptor sites, generation of action potentials in olfactory neurons, and perception of a smell.
Polyneuritis
MedGen UID:
46005
Concept ID:
C0032541
Disease or Syndrome
Simulataneous inflammation of multiple nerves.
Seizure
MedGen UID:
20693
Concept ID:
C0036572
Sign or Symptom
A seizure is an intermittent abnormality of nervous system physiology characterised by a transient occurrence of signs and/or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain.
Congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma
MedGen UID:
86936
Concept ID:
C0079583
Disease or Syndrome
An ichthyosiform abnormality of the skin with congenital onset.
Male hypogonadism
MedGen UID:
57480
Concept ID:
C0151721
Disease or Syndrome
Familial male hypogonadism is a highly heterogeneous category from which some disorders such as Reifenstein syndrome (312300), Kallmann syndrome (see 308700), isolated gonadotropin deficiency, and some other entities can be separated. The presence of an autosomal recessive form is suggested by the occurrence of parental consanguinity (Nowakowski and Lenz, 1961).
Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism
MedGen UID:
82883
Concept ID:
C0271623
Disease or Syndrome
Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is characterized by reduced function of the gonads (testes in males or ovaries in females) and results from the absence of the gonadal stimulating pituitary hormones
Intellectual disability
MedGen UID:
811461
Concept ID:
C3714756
Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Subnormal intellectual functioning which originates during the developmental period. Intellectual disability, previously referred to as mental retardation, has been defined as an IQ score below 70.
Hyperchromic macrocytic anemia
MedGen UID:
854250
Concept ID:
C3854594
Disease or Syndrome
A type of anemia characterized by abnormally large erythrocytes with abnormally high amounts of haemoglobin.
Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis
MedGen UID:
867398
Concept ID:
C4021768
Finding
Rod-cone dystrophy
MedGen UID:
1632921
Concept ID:
C4551714
Disease or Syndrome
An inherited retinal disease subtype in which the rod photoreceptors appear to be more severely affected than the cone photoreceptors. Typical presentation is with nyctalopia (due to rod dysfunction) followed by loss of mid-peripheral field of vision, which gradually extends and leaves many patients with a small central island of vision due to the preservation of macular cones.
Gonadotropin deficiency
MedGen UID:
1632671
Concept ID:
C4552011
Disease or Syndrome
A reduced ability to secrete gonadotropins, which are protein hormones secreted by gonadotrope cells of the anterior pituitary gland, including the hormones follitropin (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
