Craniosynostosis in hyper-IgE-syndrome

Abstract: A 9-year-old boy with hyperimmunoglobulin-E-syndrome (HIE) and craniosynostosis is reported. Premature fusion of the sagittal and lambdoid suture led to scaphocephaly. A partial optic atrophy without clinical signs of raised intracranial pressure was observed. This is the fourth reported case of craniosynostosis in HIE. Bone anomalies like osteoporosis are frequent findings in HIE. Apart from their clinical impact they could be related to factors involved in the pathogenesis of HIE, such as impairment of chemo… Show more

“…The condition has been associated with a variety of skeletal findings, including growth retardation, severe osteoporosis, and osteogenesis imperfecta [Hoger et al, 19851. Four instances of craniosynostosis have been reported [Hoger et al, 1985;Smithwick et al, 19781. To date, all patients have been male. The cause is unknown.…”

“…Heterozygous STAT3 mutations are associated with autosomal dominant hyper IgE syndrome (ADHIES), a primary immune deficiency. Craniosynostosis has been described in 4 ADHIES cases [Smithwick et al, 1978;Hoger et al, 1985]. Homozygous mutations in the interleukin 11 receptor alpha gene (IL11RA) were also identified in a family with Crouzon-like craniosynostosis [Keupp et al, 2013].…”
