Van den Bosch syndrome

MedGen UID:
162920
Concept ID:
C0796192
Congenital Abnormality; Disease or Syndrome
Synonym: Mental deficiency, choroideremia, acrokeratosis verruciformis,anhidrosis, skeletal deformity
SNOMED CT: Van den Bosch syndrome (733110004)
Modes of inheritance:
X-linked recessive inheritance
MedGen UID:
375779
Concept ID:
C1845977
Finding
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for recessive traits related to a gene encoded on the X chromosome. In the context of medical genetics, X-linked recessive disorders manifest in males (who have one copy of the X chromosome and are thus hemizygotes), but generally not in female heterozygotes who have one mutant and one normal allele.
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0010754
OMIM®: 314500
Orphanet: ORPHA3417

Definition

Syndrome that is characterised by intellectual deficit, choroideraemia, acrokeratosis verruciformis, anhidrosis, and skeletal deformities. It has been observed in a single kindred. The syndrome is transmitted as an X-linked recessive trait and may be caused by a small X-chromosome deletion. [from SNOMEDCT_US]

Clinical features

From HPO
Intellectual disability
MedGen UID:
811461
Concept ID:
C3714756
Mental or Behavioral Dysfunction
Intellectual disability, previously referred to as mental retardation, is characterized by subnormal intellectual functioning that occurs during the developmental period. It is defined by an IQ score below 70.
Abnormality of the skeletal system
MedGen UID:
867418
Concept ID:
C4021790
Anatomical Abnormality
An abnormality of the skeletal system.
Acrokeratosis
MedGen UID:
450988
Concept ID:
C0001202
Disease or Syndrome
Overgrowth of the stratum corneum characterized by flesh-coloured or slightly pigmented smooth or warty papules on the upper surface of hands and feet.
Anhidrosis
MedGen UID:
1550
Concept ID:
C0003028
Disease or Syndrome
Inability to sweat.
Choroideremia
MedGen UID:
944
Concept ID:
C0008525
Disease or Syndrome
Choroideremia (CHM) is characterized by progressive chorioretinal degeneration in affected males and milder signs in heterozygous (carrier) females. Typically, symptoms in affected males evolve from night blindness to peripheral visual field loss, with central vision preserved until late in life. Although carrier females are generally asymptomatic, signs of chorioretinal degeneration can be reliably observed with fundus autofluorescence imaging, and – after age 25 years – with careful fundus examination.
