The hypertelorism-hypospadias syndrome or Opitz-G / BBB syndrome is a congenital disease (dysmorphic syndrome) with a combination of hypertelorism , hypospadias and cleft lip and palate .

Synonyms are:

  • BBB syndrome
  • Opitz syndrome
  • Hypertelorism-esophageal anomaly-hypospadias syndrome
  • Opitz G / X Linked BBB Syndrome
  • Opitz-Frias Syndrome

The term Opitz syndrome refers to the first description by the German-American human geneticist John Marius Opitz .

distribution

The frequency is given as 1–9 per 100,000, inheritance is partly autosomal dominant , x-linked - recessive .

root cause

About 80% of X-linked cases are caused by mutations in MID 1 - gene causes. The gene codes for the midline 1 protein.

Clinical manifestations

Criteria are:

  • Pronounced hypertelorism with a broad nose
  • Hypospadias without cryptorchidism
  • Auricular dysplasia
  • Cleft lip and palate or cleft palate
  • Diaphragmatic hernia

rarely can also anal atresia , Larynxatresie , a vesicoureteral reflux , heart defects, or iris coloboma occur.

diagnosis

A prenatal diagnosis by ultrasound or reliably by chromosome analysis is possible.

Differential diagnosis

To be distinguished are u. a. the Graham-Cox syndrome , Pallister Hall syndrome or the hypertelorism of the Teebi type .

Prospect of healing

The prognosis depends on the severity, which can be very variable, even within a family.

history

The term Opitz syndrome was initially used to describe two different diseases and differentiated as G syndrome and BBB syndrome. Since the realization that it is just a disease, one speaks of the Opitz-G / BBB syndrome.
