Alternative titles and symbols : Crouzonodermoskeletal syndrome;

Description : Crouzon syndrome with acanthosis nigricans is considered to be a distinct disorder from classic Crouzon syndrome (123500), which is caused by mutation in the FGFR2 gene (176943). Cohen (1999) argued that this condition is separate from Crouzon syndrome for 2 main reasons: it is caused by a highly specific mutation of the FGFR3 gene, whereas multiple different FGFR2 mutations result in Crouzon syndrome, and the phenotypes are different.;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation (A391E) in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 gene (FGFR3, 134934.0011);
