    Notes: Abstract We report on a 13-month old boy with microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism (MOPD), whose radiographic signs correspond with type II of this entity. Some of his clinical signs, such as the anomalies of the external genitalia and the urinary tract, are common to this subgroup of MOPD, but he also shows unusual clinical signs including bilateral knee dislocation and hypoplasia of the anterior corpus callosum. His clinical course was unusual with several episodes of breathing difficulties and increased intracranial pressure secondary to craniosynostosis at the age of 16 months. After fronto-orbital advancement for the treatment of brachycephaly, his psychomotor development improved remarkably. Conclusion MOPD type II may have a wider range of expression than previously delineated.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Myotonic dystrophy is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder involving muscle, brain, heart, eyes, and endocrine organs. The underlying mutation is an expanding trinucleotide CTG repeat in the 3’prime untranslated region of a serine-threonine kinase gene on chromosome 19q. A statistical correlation exists between the CTG copy number and the severity of the disease. Infants with severe congenital myotonic dystrophy have been shown to have on average a greater amplification of the CTG repeat than is seen in the non-congenital myotonic dystrophy population. However, not all patients with many CTG copies develop congenital myotonic dystrophy. We present 13 patients with more than 1500 CTG trinucleotide repeats and show their variable clinical course.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die myotone Muskeldystrophie ist eine autosomal dominante Multisystemerkrankung, die Muskulatur, Gehirn, Herz, Augen, Gastrointestinaltrakt und endokrine Organe betreffen kann. Die zugrundeliegende Genmutation ist eine Vermehrung von CTG-Triplets in der untranslatierten 3’Region eines Serin-Threonin-Kinase-Gens auf Chromosom 19q. Die Anzahl der CTG-Kopien korreliert statistisch mit der Schwere der Erkrankung. Kinder mit kongenitaler myotoner Muskeldystrophie haben durchschnittlich mehr CTG-Kopien als Patienten mit nichtkongenitaler Erkrankung. Allerdings haben nicht alle Patienten mit hoher Anzahl von CTG-Kopien einen kongenitalen Erkrankungsbeginn. Wir präsentieren 13 Patienten mit mehr als 1500 CTG-Trinukleotidkopien und zeigen das variable klinische Bild.

    Notes: Skelettfehlbildungen und Herzfehler sind Leitsymptome des autosomal dominant erblichen Holt-Oram-Syndroms. Bei vollständiger Penetranz kann der Ausprägungsgrad der klinischen Symptome innerhalb einer Familie jedoch sehr unterschiedlich sein und zu diagnostischen Schwierigkeiten führen. Anhand von 13 eigenen Patienten mit Holt-Oram-Syndrom im Alter 1–35 Jahren wird das klinische Spektrum dargestellt. Es reicht von - meist asymmetrischen - Phokomelien der oberen Extremität bis zu isolierten Thenarhypoplasie als Minimalsymptom der Erkrankung. Eltern eines scheinbar sporadischen Falles sollten gezielt daraufhin untersucht werden, um das Wiederholungsrisiko für weitere Kinder bestimmen zu können.
