As reported by Tracy Lester there are now 3 families reported with valvular and/or vascular defects as well as dental abnormalities and short stature:
PMID: 25899461 - Dugan et al 2015 - 2 sisters with homozygous truncating mutations (1 bp insertion) in LTBP3. Only this gene was analysed. They presented with oligodontia, short stature and mitral valve prolaps
PMID: 29625025 - Guo et al 2018 - report 2 families with individuals presenting with dental abnormalities and short stature and aneurysms and dissections of the thoracic aorta, aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and other arteries, and dental abnormalities and short stature. In one family compound heterozygous variants segregated with the disease and in the other a homozygous variant was found in all affected individuals. All the individuals with biallelic variants needed treatment before the age of 45. Heterozygous carriers of the p.Asn678_Gly681delinsThrCys variant have later onset of thoracic aortic disease, as well as dental abnormalities.Created: 2 Mar 2022, 6:40 p.m. | Last Modified: 2 Mar 2022, 6:40 p.m.

Mode of inheritance
BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal
Phenotypes
Dental anomalies and short stature, OMIM:601216
AR Short stature with dental anomalies (MIM601216) is an autosomal recessive disorder that can present with variable valvular and/or vascular defects, including mitral valve prolapse, aortic root dilation, and aortic as well as other arterial aneurysms. Pathogenic variant was alsmost missed as it was not tiered - not green on this panel and gene was on skeletal panel with only monoallelic mode of inheritance.
