Prevention Treacher-Collins syndrome Alternative Names: Mandibulofacial dysostosis Treatment: Treatment consists of testing for and treating any hearing loss so a child can perform up to normal level in school. Plastic surgery can address the receding chin and other defects. Support Groups: Treacher Collins Foundation www.treachercollinsfnd.org Expectations (prognosis): Children with Treacher-Collins should grow to become normally functioning adults of normal intelligence. Careful attention to any hearing problems helps ensure better performance in school. Complications: Feeding difficulty Speaking difficulty Communication problems Vision problems Cosmetic appearance can cause other people to think the problem is worse than it is Calling your health care provider: This condition is usually apparent at birth. Call your health care provider if you have a child with Treacher-Collins syndrome and the hearing appears to be worse, or if other problems arise. A good plastic surgeon is very important as there is sometimes a need for a series of operations over years to correct birth defects. Review Date: 10/28/2001 Reviewed By: David G.

The other principle feature of Pendred's is a thyroid goiter (swelling of the neck). It a autosomal recessive condition and is caused by mutations in the PDS gene (also known as DFNB4) which encodes a protein called pendrin.

Associated persons: George Andreas Berry Cynthia J. R. Curry Ekkart Genée Bryan D. Hall ... Hans-Rudolf Wiedemann Description: A syndrome present from birth, affecting both sexes, characterised by postaxial polydactyly of the hands and feet, hexadactyly and fusion of 5th and 6th metatarsals and metacarpals, and bony clefts of the mandibular symphysis. Other features include anomalies of lower incisors and oral vestibule, ear anthelices, hypoplastic and dysplastic nails, and mild shortness of stature. Inheritance is autosomal dominant with variable expression. Miller's syndrome is entered as Genée-Wiedemann syndrome or diasease, under Ekkart Genée, German ophthalmologist, born 1936. Nager-de Reynier syndrome, or mandibulofacial dysostosis with limb malformations syndrome, is entered as a separate entity under Felix Robert Nager, Swiss otorhinolaryngologist, 1877-1959.
