Clinical information |
Apert disease is an autosomal dominant congenital disorder with craniosynostosis and syndactyly as hallmark features. Malformations include premature closure of cranial sutures, cleft palate, as well as syndactyly of hands and feet (fusion of all digits is frequent). Mental retardation may also be observed. In most cases the disease is due to de novo mutation in the FGFR2 gene (coding fibroblast growth factor receptor 2). |
