  • Dysmyelogenic leukodystrophy-megalobare

    Dysmyelogenic leukodystrophy-megalobare or Alexander disease is an extremely rare, usually progressive and fatal, neurological disorder. Initially, it was detected most often during infancy or early childhood. Alexander disease has historically been included among the leukodystrophies–diseases of the white matter of the brain. These diseases affect the fatty material (myelin) that forms an insulating sheath around  Read More

    Dysplasia epiphysealis punctata is a rare condition characterized by the presence of stippled epiphyses at birth in association with other connective tissue disturbances. It is also known under a variety of names such as chondrodystrophia foetalis calcificans, stippled epiphyses, or congenital multiple epiphyseal dysplasia. It is also called Conradi Disease. Two main forms are recognized 1. The classic  Read More

  • Glossoptosis micrognathia and cleft palate

    Glossoptosis micrognathia and cleft palate are known as the Pierre Robin sequence. 1. No medications are available that improve the situation. 2. The conditions are managed through surgical interventions. Surgery is performed only to solve the functional problems that a patient may have. Surgical treatments may be indicated for PRS patients with more severe clinical conditions, especially for people with air  Read More

  • Holoprosencephaly

    Holoprosencephaly is a neuroanatomical malformation of the forebrain or frontal lobe. Impaired signaling between the neural crest and neural ectoderm is the cause of the disorder. it occurs during the period of gastrulation, two or three weeks after conception. Incomplete midline cleavage of the forebrain and craniofacial midline defects are the primary clinical features. Many genetic defects have been attributed to the disease. Nongenetic causes  Read More

  • Infantile apnea

    Infantile apnea is a disorder characterized by pauses in breathing during infancy. It is characterized by apnea, or cessation of breathing, for 20 seconds or more. These pauses may occur dozens of times per day and can last for several minutes. It is a potentially life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical attention. There is no known cure for infantile apnea, but there are certain medications that can he  Read More

  • Jarcho levin syndrome

    Jarcho-Levin syndrome is not currently curable. However, there are a few different medications that may help to decrease the symptoms of this disease. 1. Irinotecan: This is the most common drug used for treating jarcho levin syndrome, and it works by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells in the body. It's usually administered intravenously once every two weeks to three months, depending on how quickly your tumor  Read More

  • Joubert syndrome

    Joubert syndrome is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder that affects the area of the brain that controls balance and coordination. This condition is characterized by a specific finding on an MRI called a "molar tooth sign" in which the cerebellar vermis of the brain is absent or underdeveloped and the brain stem is abnormal. The most common features of Joubert syndrome are lack of muscle control (ataxia), abnormal breathing patterns (hyper  Read More

  • Keratosis palmoplantaris transgradiens of siemens

    Keratosis planopilaris transgrediens of siemens is a genodermatosis characterized by hyperkeratosis. Initially, keratosis begins on the palm and soles and spreads to the dorsal aspects of hands, fingers, and feet as well as flexor aspects of wrists and heels. The skin manifestations set in by the age of 3 to 5 years. abnormal expression of structural proteins involved in the skin is the cause of the condition. Ris  Read More

  • Postanesthetic apnea

    Postanesthetic apnea is a condition that can occur after surgery. People with this condition may have difficulty breathing and may need help from a ventilator. There is no cure for postanesthetic apnea, but it is generally a temporary condition that resolves on its own. Medications may be used to help people with this condition breathe more easily. There is no known cure for postanesthetic apnea. However, there ar  Read More

  • Ring 21 chromosome

Ring chromosome 21 can be randomly acquired (by chance) during the development of egg or sperm cells or  Read More

  • Sandhoff disease

    Sandhoff disease is an exceedingly rare lysosomal storage condition. It induces nerve cell damage (neurodegeneration). This causes issues with thinking and movement. Sandhoff illness is caused by faulty HEXB gene mutations. Negative alterations in this gene result in lower levels of two enzymes in the cell's recycling centers (lysosomes). Certain fats (lipids) accumulate in enormous levels in nerve cells in the absence of thes  Read More

    Smith-Magenis syndrome is characterized by particular facial features, developmental delays, mental retardation and behavioral abnormalities. The facial features include a broad square-shaped face, an abnormally short, broad head (brachycephaly); an abnormally broad, flat midface; a broad nasal bridge; an unusually prominent jaw (prognathism); eyebrows growing across the base of the nose (synophrys); a short full tipped nose and fl  Read More
