Skeletal dysplasia
Gene: ASXL2
Neither gene nor Bohring listed in SD nosology paper. Prominent metopic suture frequently associated with Bohring-Opitz syndrome with 90% having trigonocephaly. Also flexion of elbows and wrists with deviation of wrists and metacarpophalangeal joints. Many cases reported - green if fits as SD. Note added by AW - ASXL2 yes, skeletal findings seems more consistent than with ASXL1, including advanced bone age, thick calvarium, fusion of second and third cervical vertebrae, short metacarpals and distal phalanges, kyphosis, scoliosis.
