Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia-Maroteaux type due to dominant TRPV4 mutation: expanding the phenotype with a case report.

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Dominant pathogenic mutations in the TRPV4 gene give rise to a wide spectrum of abnormal phenotypes, including bone dysplasia as well as spinal muscular atrophy and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy. Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasias (SEMDs) are autosomal dominant skeletal dysplasias characterized by mild epiphyseal dysplasia, flared metaphyses, prominent joints, spondyler dysplasia, and...
