The Martsolf syndrome ( english CATARACT MENTAL RETARDATION-hypogonadism ) is a very rare congenital disease with the main features of cataracts , mental retardation and hypogonadism .
The name refers to the first author of the first description from 1978 by the Canadian pediatrician John T. Martsolf and colleagues.
distribution
The frequency is given as less than 1 in 1,000,000, so far almost 20 patients have been described. Inheritance is autosomal - recessive .
root cause
The disease is based on mutations in the RAB3GAP2 gene at locus 1q41, which codes for the RAB3-GTPase-activating protein.
This gene is also changed in the more severe Warburg micro-syndrome .
Clinical manifestations
Clinical criteria are:
- cataract
- Mental retardation
- Hypogonadism
- Short stature
In addition, there can be finger malformations, microcephaly , cardiomyopathy , heart defects and slight facial abnormalities.
