Description : Diaphanospondylodysostosis is a rare, recessively inherited, perinatal lethal skeletal
disorder. The primary skeletal characteristics include small chest, abnormal vertebral
segmentation, and posterior rib gaps containing incompletely differentiated mesenchymal
tissue. Consistent craniofacial features include ocular hypertelorism, epicanthal
folds, depressed nasal bridge with short nose, and low-set ears. The most commonly
described extraskeletal finding is nephroblastomatosis with cystic kidneys, but other
visceral findings have been described in some cases (summary by Funari et al., 2010).;
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the BMP binding endothelial regulator gene (BMPER, 608699.0001);
