Symbol : LRS;
CISMeF acronym : LRS;
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;
Description : Larsen syndrome is an osteochondrodysplasia characterized by large-joint dislocations
and characteristic craniofacial abnormalities. The cardinal features of the condition
are dislocations of the hip, knee and elbow joints, with equinovarus or equinovalgus
foot deformities. Spatula-shaped fingers, most marked in the thumb, are also present.
Craniofacial anomalies include hypertelorism, prominence of the forehead, a depressed
nasal bridge, and a flattened midface. Cleft palate and short stature are often associated
features. Spinal anomalies include scoliosis and cervical kyphosis. Hearing loss is
a well-recognized complication (summary by Bicknell et al., 2007).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the filamin B gene (FLNB, 603381.0004);
