Clinical Variant of Ablepharon Macrostomia Syndrome

Abstract: Ablepharon syndrome is an extremely rare genetic problem that causes severe craniofacial deformities and numerous other abnormalities of the face, genitalia, and skin. The literature regarding this condition is scarce. We present a case of this syndrome with dental manifestations, not reported before, and discuss its characteristics in order to increase the knowledge of this condition among the dental profession.

“…If uncertainties remained the feature was not scored for the patient involved. Several patients were excluded as likely a different disorder was present [Pellegrino et al, 1996;Amor and Savarirayan, 2001;Cavalcanti et al, 2007;Kallish et al, 2011;Larumbe et al, 2011;Suga et al, 2014], or we remained uncertain about the diagnosis (please see Differential Diagnosis for a more detailed discussion of these reports) [Sod et al, 1977;Dinulos and Pagon, 1999 (patient 2); Ng and Rajguru, 2006].…”

“…The latter two patients [Amor and Savarirayan, 2011;Kallish et al, 2011] tested negatively for TWIST2 mutations [Marchegiani et al, 2015]. Lastly, the patient reported by Larumbe et al [2011] clearly had severe congenital ichthyosis. One patient showing an overlap between Fraser syndrome and AMS was subsequently found to harbor a homozygous splice site mutation in FRAS1, confirming the diagnosis of Fraser syndrome [Cavalcanti et al, 2007;Schanze et al, 2013].…”

Porém, nenhum outro paciente com SAM apresentou alteração no cariótipo, e nenhum gene foi ainda definitivamente relacionado à síndrome.…”
