Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal dominant inheritance
MedGen UID:

Concept ID:
C0443147
Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele.

Disease characteristics

Excerpted from the GeneReview: HRAS-Related Costello Syndrome
While the majority of individuals with HRAS-related Costello syndrome (Costello syndrome) share characteristic findings affecting multiple organ systems, the phenotypic spectrum is wide, ranging from a mild or attenuated phenotype to a severe phenotype with early-lethal complications. Costello syndrome is typically characterized by failure to thrive in infancy as a result of severe postnatal feeding difficulties; short stature; developmental delay or intellectual disability; coarse facial features (full lips, large mouth, full nasal tip); curly or sparse, fine hair; loose, soft skin with deep palmar and plantar creases; papillomata of the face and perianal region; diffuse hypotonia and joint laxity with ulnar deviation of the wrists and fingers; tight Achilles tendons; and cardiac involvement including cardiac hypertrophy (usually hypertrophic cardiomyopathy), congenital heart defects (usually valvular pulmonic stenosis), and arrhythmia (usually supraventricular tachycardia, especially abnormal atrial rhythm / multifocal atrial tachycardia or ectopic atrial tachycardia). Relative or absolute macrocephaly is typical, and postnatal cerebellar overgrowth can result in the development of a Chiari I malformation with associated anomalies including hydrocephalus or syringomyelia. Individuals with Costello syndrome have an approximately 15% lifetime risk for malignant tumors including rhabdomyosarcoma and neuroblastoma in young children and transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder in adolescents and young adults. [from GeneReviews]

Additional descriptions

From OMIM
Costello syndrome is a rare multiple congenital anomaly syndrome associated in all cases with a characteristic coarse facies, short stature, distinctive hand posture and appearance, severe feeding difficulty, and failure to thrive. Other features include cardiac anomalies and developmental disability. Facial warts, particularly nasolabial, are often present in childhood (Kerr et al., 2006). In patients with a clinical diagnosis of Costello syndrome, Zenker et al. (2007) identified mutations in the KRAS gene, but noted that these patients may later develop features of CFC syndrome. In either case, the findings underscore the central role of Ras in the pathogenesis of these phenotypically related disorders (Zenker et al., 2007). However, Kerr et al. (2008) commented that the diagnosis of Costello syndrome should only be used to refer to patients with mutations in the HRAS gene.  http://www.omim.org/entry/218040
From MedlinePlus Genetics
Costello syndrome is a rare disorder that affects many parts of the body. This condition is characterized by delayed development, loose folds of skin (which are especially noticeable on the hands and feet), unusually flexible joints, heart problems, short stature, and distinctive facial features.

Children with Costello syndrome are often delayed in reaching developmental milestones, such as speaking, sitting, and walking. Affected individuals may also have intellectual disabilities that can vary in severity.

Distinctive facial features in people with Costello syndrome typically include a prominent forehead, full cheeks, and full lips. Infants with Costello syndrome may be larger than average at birth, but most have difficulty eating and grow more slowly than other children. Affected individuals may have gastrointestinal problems that include constipation or a backflow of stomach acids into the esophagus (gastroesophageal reflux or GERD). People with this condition have short stature compared to their family and peers and may have reduced growth hormone levels. 

Heart problems are common, including an abnormal heartbeat (arrhythmia), structural heart defects, and a type of heart disease that enlarges and weakens the heart muscle (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). Neurological problems in people with Costello syndrome include seizures, weak muscle tone (hypotonia), and a structural abnormality of the brain called a Chiari I malformation. Costello syndrome can cause vision problems, such as nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), or eyes that do not point in the same direction (strabismus). Hearing loss may also occur.

Other signs and symptoms of Costello syndrome can include tight Achilles tendons (which connect the calf muscles to the heel), recurrent respiratory infections, dry and thickened skin, skeletal abnormalities, and dental problems.

Beginning in early childhood, people with Costello syndrome have a higher risk of developing certain cancerous and noncancerous tumors compared to the general population. The most common noncancerous tumors associated with this condition are papillomas, which are small, wart-like growths that usually develop around the nose and mouth or near the anus. The most common cancerous tumor associated with Costello syndrome is a childhood cancer called rhabdomyosarcoma, which begins in muscle tissue. Neuroblastoma, a tumor that arises in developing nerve cells, has also been reported in children and adolescents with this syndrome. In addition, some teenagers with Costello syndrome have developed transitional cell carcinoma, a form of bladder cancer that is usually seen in older adults. 

The signs and symptoms of Costello syndrome overlap significantly with those of two other genetic conditions, cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome (CFC syndrome) and Noonan syndrome. In affected infants, it can be difficult to tell the three conditions apart based on their physical features. However, the conditions can be distinguished by their genetic causes and by the specific patterns of signs and symptoms that develop later in childhood.  https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/costello-syndrome

Urinary bladder carcinoma
MedGen UID:
147071
Concept ID:
C0699885
Neoplastic Process
Bladder cancer is a disease in which certain cells in the bladder become abnormal and multiply uncontrollably to form a tumor. The bladder is a muscular organ in the lower abdomen that stores urine until it can be removed (excreted) from the body.\n\nBladder cancer may cause blood in the urine, pain during urination, frequent urination, the feeling of needing to urinate without being able to, or lower back pain. Many of these signs and symptoms are nonspecific, which means they may occur in multiple disorders. People who have one or more of these nonspecific health problems often do not have bladder cancer, but have another condition such as an infection.\n\nBladder cancer develops when tumors form in the tissue that lines the bladder. There are several types of bladder cancer, categorized by the type of cell in the tissue that becomes cancerous. The most common type is transitional cell carcinoma (also known as urothelial carcinoma); others include squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. If the tumor spreads  (metastasizes) beyond the lining of the bladder into nearby tissues or organs, it is known as invasive bladder cancer.
