" /> Meckel syndrome, type 7 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Meckel syndrome, type 7;

Symbol : MKS7;

CISMeF acronym : MKS7;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Goldston syndrome; Renal-hepatic-pancreatic dysplasia with dandy-walker cyst;

Description : This autosomal recessive disorder is designated Meckel syndrome type 7 based on the classic phenotypic triad of (1) cystic renal disease; (2) a central nervous system abnormality, and (3) hepatic abnormalities, as defined by Meckel (1822), Salonen (1984), and Logan et al. (2011). According to these criteria, polydactyly is a variable feature. Herriot et al. (1991) and Al-Gazali et al. (1996) concluded that Dandy-Walker malformation can be the phenotypic manifestation of a central nervous system malformation in MKS. For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Meckel syndrome, see MKS1 (249000).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the nephrocystin 3 gene (NPHP3, 608002.0004);

Prefixed ID : #267010;
