Ciliopathy spectrum expanded? Jeune syndrome associated with foregut dysmotility and malrotation

Abstract: We report the association and surgical management of gastrointestinal dysmotility and malrotation with Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (JATD), an autosomal recessive condition that often results in respiratory failure due to a small rib cage. A 4-month-old male with JATD presented with vomiting and aspiration pneumonitis compounding already severe respiratory morbidity. A contrast study revealed esophageal and gastric dysmotility with associated malrotation. This was treated surgically with good results.… Show more

“…A recent report has proposed that JATD may present with foregut dysmotility. [ 1 ] We report a new patient of JATD with an extremely rare constellation of associated anomalies comprising gastric motility disorder and situs inversus totalis. To the best of our knowledge and PubMed review, our report is the second case of such a syndromic association of JATD with gastric motility disorder and situs inversus.…”

“…Age of occurrence has been variable. JATD can also occasionally be associated with GI malformations including cystic changes of the pancreas with fibrosis, Hirschsprung's disease, and malrotation as a manifestation of the ciliopathy [29,30].…”

“…Hands and feet may show cone-shaped epiphyses (Fig 24). In addition to the skeletal manifestations, visceral involvement is demonstrated by renal and pancreatic cysts, intrahepatic bile duct dilatation, intestinal malrotation, and situs anomalies (85,86,90). Many patients die in the neonatal period due to pulmonary hypoplasia related to the small thorax, but patients who survive develop progressive renal failure due to a nephronophthisis-like renal defect.…”
