A phenotype intermediate between Desbuquois dysplasia and diastrophic dysplasia secondary to mutations in DTDST

Abstract: We describe a child whose original clinical and radiologic manifestations led to a diagnosis of Desbuquois dysplasia. Subsequent development of features including cervical kyphosis and cystic ears caused us to reconsider the original diagnosis. The new complement of features in this patient fell in a range between Desbuquois dysplasia and diastrophic dysplasia. Molecular testing showed that she is a compound heterozygote for mutations in the diastrophic dysplasia sulfate transporter gene (DTDST). This finding … Show more

“…This is shown here between DTD and rMED (Fig. 3), but it is also true for the other SLC26A6 ‐related dysplasias (between ACG1B and AO2 and between AO2 and DTD) (22–26). The spectrum of SLC26A2 ‐related dysplasias can hence be described as a continuum, while also continuously expanding (27).…”

“…An intermediate phenotype of DBQD, diastrophic dysplasia, and recessive multiple epiphyseal dysplasia, including the monkey wrench appearance of the proximal femora, have been identified with compound heterozygote DTDST gene mutations. 16,17 We identified three novel CANT1 gene mutations in our patients, all located within exon 2 of the gene. Two were frameshift mutations with predicted stop codons after 89 and 13 missense amino acid residues, respectively, and were expected to cause complete loss of protein function, probably through nonsense-mediated RNA decay as disease-causing mechanism.…”

“…We analyzed recent publications on the intermediate DTDST forms between Desbuquois dysplasia, diastrophic dysplasia and MED [Bieganski et al, 2000; Miyake et al, 2008; Panzer et al, 2008; Al Kaissi et al, 2009]. According to the DTDST severity continuum proposed by Panzer et al 2008, the phenotype of our patients is in the middle between “diastrophic dysplasia variant” and MED.…”
