Terminal osseous dysplasia with pigmentary defects (TODPD) due to a recurrent filamin A (FLNA) mutation

Abstract: Terminal osseous dysplasia with pigmentary defects (TODPD) is an X-linked dominant syndrome with distal limb anomalies, pigmentary skin defects, digital fibromas, and generalized bone involvement due to a recurrent mutation in the filamin A (FLNA) gene. We here report the mutation c.5217G>A in FLNA in three families with TODPD and we found possible germline and somatic mosaicism in two out of the three families. The occurrence of somatic and germline mosaicism for TODPD indicates that caution should be taken i… Show more

“…2 In addition to that, FLNA mutations were not detected in the DNA extracted from blood in mothers with minor signs of TODPD from two families, although the affected daughters with complete clinical symptoms from two such pedigrees were all found to carry the c.5217G>A in the FLNA gene. 4 This phenomenon suggests that variants in the FLNA gene are associated with various clinical manifestations, and present possible germ line and somatic mosaicism in TODPD.…”

“…Brunetti‐Pierri et al () stated that the generalized bone involvement including bowing, mesomelic shortening, abnormal bony texture, narrow iliac wings and S‐shaped tibias observed in TODPD as similar and overlapping to FLNA‐related disorders such as Melnick‐Needles syndrome and otopalatodigital syndrome (Brunetti‐Pierri et al, ).…”

“…Overlap of TODPD clinical features with other regional skin hypoplasia‐related syndromes namely focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH), microphthalmia with linear skin defects (MLS), and oculocerebrocutaneous syndrome (OCCS), suggested a common pathogenic mechanism for these conditions (Giampietro et al, ). The FLNA gene is involved in signaling pathways that mediate organogenesis in multiple systems, mainly affecting central nervous system (CNS), cardiovascular system and skeleton (CVS), and skeleton (Brunetti‐Pierri et al, ). However, no skin findings have been reported in other FLNA‐related disorders.…”
