Article Abstract

Holt-Oram syndrome comprises a rare spectrum of congenital cardiovascular and appendicular skeletal anomalies. However, only a few cases have reported lung involvement in Holt-Oram syndrome. We reported the rare case of a 1-year-old male child patient who presented with upper limb abnormalities and respiratory distress and was diagnosed with pulmonary agenesis and pulmonary arterial hypertension secondary to an atrial septal defect.

Unlabelled: Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS; OMIM 142900) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder, typically involving upper limb anomalies and cardiac septal defects. HOS is caused by mutations in the gene, which encodes a T-box transcription factor. We report a Japanese family with a novel -Q469* nonsense variant that exhibited atypical HOS characteristics, including early-onset sick sinus syndrome (SSS), but no apparent upper limb abnormalities.

We report the clinical and genetic features of three adult patients with congenital heart disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (CHD-PAH) carrying rare T-box variants. All three patients had weakness and cyanosis. Two patients had chest tightness, dry cough, and hemoptysis, and one patient had lower limb edema.

Background: Polydactyly and syndactyly, which are commonly encountered congenital limb deformities, rarely occur together and are linked with significant genetic mutations. This report sheds light on a unique co-presentation involving mutations in both the GLI3 and TBX5 genes, offering a deeper understanding of the genetic interactions that may influence limb development. This case report is important to increase our knowledge on genetic bases of limb malformations.
