Preferred Label : Craniometaphyseal dysplasia, autosomal recessive; 
Symbol : CMDR; 
CISMeF acronym : CMDR; 
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known; 
Description : Craniometaphyseal dysplasia is an osteochondrodysplasia characterized by hyperostosis
               and sclerosis of the craniofacial bones associated with abnormal modeling of the metaphyses.
               Sclerosis of the skull may lead to asymmetry of the mandible, as well as to cranial
               nerve compression, that may finally result in hearing loss and facial palsy (summary
               by Nurnberg et al., 1997). The delineation of separate autosomal dominant (CMDD; 123000)
               and autosomal recessive forms of CMD by Gorlin et al. (1969) was confirmed by reports
               that made it evident that the dominant form is relatively mild and comparatively common,
               whereas the recessive form is rare, severe, and possibly heterogeneous.; 
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive; 
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the gap junction protein, alpha-1 gene (GJA1, 121014.0021);
