Description : The Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is an autosomal dominant aortic aneurysm syndrome with widespread systemic involvement. As defined by Loeys et al. (2006), the disorder is characterized by the triad of arterial tortuosity and aneurysms, hypertelorism, and bifid uvula or cleft palate. Patients with LDS type 1 have craniofacial involvement consisting of cleft palate, craniosynostosis, or hypertelorism. Patients with LDS type 2 do not have these findings, but some have a bifid uvula. The natural history of both types is characterized by aggressive arterial aneurysms and a high rate of pregnancy-related complications. - Genetic Heterogeneity of Loeys-Dietz Syndrome LDS1A and LDS2A (608967) are both caused by mutation in the TGFBR1 gene; LDS1B (610168) and LDS2B (610380) are both caused by mutation in the;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the transforming growth factor, beta receptor I, 53kD gene (TGFBR1, 190181.0001);
