Clinical description Clinically, after an incubation period of 2-3 days, dysenteric syndrome appears, with 10-30 glairy, bloody watery stools per day, a high temperature (40°C) and abdominal pain.
In this condition, straining during bowel movements or inflammation of the large intestine may cause the mucous membrane or lining of the rectum to move out through the anus. Hemolytic uremic syndrome. This rare complication of shigella, more commonly caused by a type of E. coli bacteria than by shigella bacteria, can lead to a low red blood cell count (hemolytic anemia), low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) and acute kidney failure.
The levator muscle is involved in 2 other forms of congenital synkinesis: the Duane retraction syndrome (126800) and the Marcus Gunn jaw-winking phenomenon (154600).
Chen et al. (1998) proposed that this family had a newly recognized genetic syndrome consisting of eccrine syringofibroadenomatosis and ocular disease manifested by lid abnormalities, lack of meibomian glands, and progressive corneal scarring.
Although some manifestations in the brothers were similar to those in benign hereditary chorea (118700), Wheeler et al. (1993) considered this association to be a distinct autosomal recessive or X-linked recessive syndrome. Eyes - Monocular horizontal nystagmus - Cataracts Neuro - Mild chorea Lab - Normal urinary metabolic screen.
Furthermore, they suggested that this rare autoimmune syndrome may have a genetic basis, because the mother of the patient had a great-uncle, a second cousin, and 2 brothers who had died of undetermined causes within 6 months after birth, as well as an uncle and a daughter who had died before birth.
Frydman et al. (1993) proposed that all of these abnormalities were different manifestations of the same syndrome with varying expressivity in males and females (or in homo- and heterozygotes).
Specifically, no mutation in the TAZ gene (300394), which causes Barth syndrome (302060), could be detected. Haug et al. (2001) suggested that this combination of isolated calcification of the heart and intrauterine fetal death represents a distinct familial fetal cardiomyopathy.
Congenital pulmonary stenosis (PS) is a congenital heart malformation (see this term) that is characterized by a right ventricular outflow obstruction with a clinical presentation that may vary from critical stenosis presenting in the neonatal period to asymptomatic mild stenosis. The obstruction in PS can be at the valvular, subpulmonary, or supravalvular levels (valvular, subpulmonary, supravalvular PS; see these terms).
Platelet thromboxane formation from exogenous and endogenous substrate was high, while the platelet aggregation responses were normal. A myeloproliferative syndrome was suggested by findings of bone marrow aspiration.
Ciuffo et al. (1985) reported a family in which the 62-year-old mother and her 36-year-old son and 28-year-old daughter had a seemingly 'new' syndrome of pulmonary valve stenosis, secundum type of atrial septal defect, and unique EKG changes: superior axis (-88 degrees in the mother) and absence of anterior forces in the precordial leads.
In a mother and her 4 children, Goldstein et al. (1985) described a previously unreported syndrome of distichiasis with congenital heart defects and mixed peripheral vascular anomalies.
Causes that lead to damage of the hypothalamus-neurohypophyseal brain region include head trauma (resulting from an accident or surgery), congenital abnormalities (pituitary stalk interruption syndrome (PSIS, see this term), infections (meningitis, encephalitis), autoimmune disorders (primary hypophisitis, see this term) and inflammatory (sarcoidosis and Wegener's granulomatosis, see these terms) or neoplastic (germinoma, meningioma, Langerhans cell histiocytosis, craniopharyngioma (see these terms), Rathke cleft cysts and metastasis).

[1] Acid peptic disorders are the result of distinctive, but overlapping pathogenic mechanisms leading to either excessive acid secretion or diminished mucosal defense.
