“…We report on the fifth case of Steel syndrome outside of the Puerto Rican population, here caused by compound heterozygosity of two novel predicted null mutations in COL27A1 . Our patient's clinical presentation matches the clinical features of Steel syndrome described in previous patients, including typical facial dysmorphy, short stature, kyphoscoliosis, malalignment of multiple large joints including congenital bilateral hip dislocation, and hearing impairment (Figure and Table ; Flynn et al, ; Gariballa et al, ; Kotabagi et al, ; Maddirevula et al, ; Thuresson et al, ).…”

The joint occurrence of short stature, congenital dislocation of the hip, carpal coalition, dislocation of the radial head, cavus deformity, scoliosis, and vertebral anomalies was first described in 1993 by Steel et al. (OMIM #615155) in 23 children from Puerto Rico. The condition is caused by a deficient matrix protein, collagen type XXVII alpha 1 chain, due to bi‐allelic loss of function mutations in the gene COL27A1. Outside of Puerto Rico, only four families have been described, in three of which the patients also had hearing loss. However, structural eye defects have not yet been reported in conjunction with this rare autosomal recessive syndrome. Here, we describe a 9‐year‐old girl born to nonconsanguineous Syrian parents with the characteristic features of Steel syndrome, including short stature, massive malalignment of large joints, kyphoscoliosis, hearing loss, and typical facial dysmorphism. However, she was also born with bilateral colobomata of the irides and choroido‐retinae with unilateral affection of the macula. Whole exome sequencing identified two pathogenic compound heterozygous variants in COL27A1: c.93del, p.(Phe32Leufs*71) and c.3075del, p.(Lys1026Argfs*33). There was no discernible alternative cause for the colobomata. Our findings might indicate an association of this exceptionally rare disorder caused by COL27A1 mutations with developmental defects of the eye from the anophthalmia/microphthalmia/coloboma spectrum.

“…Based on these reports the condition was listed in OMIM as autosomal recessive ID type 66 (#618221). Since then two additional families with affected individuals have been reported (Harripaul et al, ; Maddirevula et al, ), increasing the number of ARID families explained by variants in C12orf4 to six. All families were consanguineous, and most of the homozygous C12orf4 variants in affected individuals were truncating.…”

Background Intellectual disability (ID) is a feature of many rare diseases caused by thousands of genes. This genetic heterogeneity implies that pathogenic variants in a specific gene are found only in a small number of patients, and difficulties arise in the definition of prevailing genotype and characteristic phenotype associated with that gene. One of such very rare disorders is autosomal recessive ID type 66 (OMIM #618221) caused by defects in C12orf4. Up to now, six families have been reported with mostly truncating variants. The spectrum of the clinical phenotype was not emphasized in previous reports, and detailed phenotype was not always available from previous patients, especially from large cohort studies. Methods Exome sequencing was performed in a consanguineous Armenian family with two affected adult brothers. Results The patients carry a novel homozygous nonsense C12orf4 variant. The integration of previous data and phenotyping of the brothers indicate that the clinical picture of C12orf4 defects involves hypotonia in infancy, rather severe ID, speech impairment, and behavioral problems such as aggressiveness, unstable mood, and autistic features. Several other symptoms are more variable and less consistent. Conclusion This rather nonsyndromic and nonspecific clinical picture implies that additional patients with C12orf4 defects will likely continue to be identified using the “genotype‐first” approach, rather than based on clinical assessment. The phenotype needs further delineation in future reports.

“…They reached a consensus that surgery to repair dislocations is not advisable because it leads to a poor outcome with recurrent hip dislocations (Flynn et al, 2010;Gonzaga-Jauregui et al, 2015;Steel et al, 1993). The causative gene, COL27A1, was not identified until 2015 by Gonzaga-Jauregui et al Only 11 patients have previously been published with COL27A1 mutations (Belbin et al, 2017;Gariballa et al, 2016;Gonzaga-Jauregui et al, 2015;Kotabagi, Shah, Shukla, & Girisha, 2016;Maddirevula et al, 2019;Thuresson et al, 2019). Eight of these patients had an apparent founder mutation, p.Gly697Arg in the Puerto Rican population (Belbin et al, 2017;Gariballa et al, 2016;Gonzaga-Jauregui et al, 2015).…”

“…Dr. Flynn was able to re-examine 18 of the 23 children originally seen in 1993. However, the Flynn et al (2010) paper does not distinguish which patients were previously evaluated, so it is unclear which patients did or did not receive follow up in 2010.Additionally, 11 more patients have been reported(Belbin et al, 2017;Gariballa et al, 2016;Gonzaga-Jauregui et al, 2015;Kotabagi et al, 2016;Maddirevula et al, 2019;Thuresson et al, 2019).

Steel syndrome was initially described by H. H. Steel in 1993 in Puerto Rico, at which time he described the clinical findings required for diagnosis. The responsible gene, COL27A1, was identified in 2015 (Gonzaga‐Jauregui et al., European Journal of Human Genetics, 2015;23:342–346). Eleven patients have previously been described with Steel syndrome and homozygous COL27A1 mutations, with eight having an apparent founder mutation, p.Gly697Arg. We describe three more patients identified at Einstein Medical Center Philadelphia and St. Christopher's Hospital for Children (Philadelphia, PA) diagnosed with Steel syndrome. All three are of Puerto Rican ancestry with the previously described founder mutation and had either hip dislocations or hip dysplasia. Radial head dislocation was only identified in one patient while short stature and scoliosis were noted in two of these patients. There are now 51 patients in the literature with Steel syndrome, including the 3 patients in this article, and 14 patients with a genetically confirmed Steel syndrome diagnosis.
