Mutations in (PTH-like hormone), cause brachydactyly type E (BDE) characterized by shortening of metacarpals, metatarsals and/or phalanges with short stature. In this report we describe three siblings and their mother with a novel heterozygous mutation c.25 T > C, p.Trp9Arg in exon 2 of the gene. Beside the known clinical features of PTHLH mutations all had a delay in speech and language development, unknown if this is related to the mutation. Patients with PTHLH mutation may have a variable phenotypic presentation.
甲状旁腺激素样激素(PTHLH)基因的突变会导致E型短指症(BDE),其特征为掌骨、跖骨和/或指骨缩短并伴有身材矮小。在本报告中,我们描述了三名兄弟姐妹及其母亲,他们在PTHLH基因的第2外显子中存在一种新的杂合突变c.25 T>C,p.Trp9Arg。除了PTHLH突变已知的临床特征外,所有人都有言语和语言发育迟缓的情况,尚不清楚这是否与该突变有关。PTHLH突变患者可能有不同的表型表现。
