Rare syndromic craniosynostosis or isolated multisuture synostosis
Gene: TMCO1
Rare syndrome with macrocrania. CSS shown in 2/11 FMs in a large pedigree (Xin et al 2010). Pehliva report a case with frontotemporal atrophy on cranial MRI. Alanay et al 2013 report a case with prominent metopic suture. ; Review on behalf of Tracy Lester and Andrew WilkieCreated: 5 Mar 2019, 11:33 a.m.
Mode of inheritance
BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Phenotypes
Cerebrofaciothoracic dysplasia/ craniofacial dysmorphism, skeletal anomalies and MR syndrome

Associated with Craniofacial dysmorphism, skeletal anomalies, and mental retardation syndrome (#213980) in OMIM and Gene2Phenotype (confirmed)
PMID: 20018682 - Xin et al 2010 - identified an autosomal recessive condition in 11 individuals in the Old Order Amish of northeastern Ohio. The syndrome was characterized by distinctive craniofacial dysmorphism, skeletal anomalies, and mental retardation. They identified a homozygous frameshift mutation, c.139_140delAG, in TMCO1 in all affected members of the extended pedigree. 2 of the 11 individuals showed craniosynostosis.
PMID: 24424126 - Pehlivan et al 2014 - report a patient with cerebro-facio-thoracic dysplasia with a homozygous splice-site mutation TMC01 identified using WES. Cranial MRI revealed frontotemporal atrophy, dilated lateral ventricles and a short, dysgenetic corpus callosum.
PMID: 24194475 - Alanay et al 2013 - identified a homozygous nonsense founder mutation, p.Arg87Ter (c.259 C>T), in TMCO1 in 4 families of Turkish origin with Cerebrofaciothoracic dysplasia. Patient 4 from family 2 had a Prominent metopic suture (craniosynostosis).
3 cases with craniosynostosis reported.
Other cases have been reported, but without craniosysnosotis e.g. PMID: 23320496, PMID: 31102500, PMID: 30556256Created: 14 Aug 2019, 1:48 p.m. | Last Modified: 14 Aug 2019, 1:55 p.m.
