Description : Microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or mental retardation is an autosomal dominant disorder that involves an overlapping but variable spectrum of central nervous system and ocular developmental anomalies. Microcephaly ranges from mild to severe and is often associated with mild to moderate developmental delay and a characteristic facial phenotype with upslanting palpebral fissures, broad nose with rounded tip, long philtrum with thin upper lip, prominent chin, and prominent ears. Chorioretinopathy is the most common eye abnormality, but retinal folds, microphthalmia, and myopic and hypermetropic astigmatism have also been reported, and some individuals have no overt ocular phenotype. Congenital lymphedema, when present, is typically confined to the dorsa of the feet, and lymphoscintigraphy reveals the absence of radioactive isotope uptake from the webspaces between the toes (summary by Ostergaard et al., 2012). - Genetic Heterogeneity of Microcephaly and Chorioretinopathy An autosomal recessive form of microcephaly with chorioretinopathy (251270) is caused by mutation in the TUBGCP6 gene (610053) on chromosome 22q. See also Mirhosseini-Holmes-Walton syndrome (autosomal recessive microcephaly with pigmentary retinopathy and mental retardation; 268050), which has been mapped to chromosome 8q21.3-q22.1. A patient with microcephaly, congenital retinal fold, mental retardation, and lymphedema who had a pericentric inversion of chromosome 6 resulting in haploinsufficiency of the CDK19 gene (614720) has been reported.;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the kinesin family member 11 gene (KIF11, 148760.0001);

Prefixed ID : #152950;
