Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) The faciooculoacousticorenal (FOAR) syndrome was first described as comprising facial anomalies, ocular anomalies, sensorineural hearing loss, and proteinuria. Facial features include prominent brow, short nose, and hypertelorism, and ocular anomalies include myopia, iris hypoplasia, and/or retinal detachment (Regenbogen ...
Clinical Description OMIM Murdoch and Mengel (1971), Holmes and Schepens (1972), and Ozer (1974) independently reported a brother and sister with a syndrome of ocular and facial anomalies, telecanthus, perceptive deafness, epiphyseal dysplasia of the femoral heads, and proteinuria. Myopia and ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In 4 affected sibs with Donnai-Barrow syndrome from the United Arab Emirates, Kantarci et al. (2007) identified a homozygous mutation in the LRP2 gene (600073.0001). Kantarci et al. (2007) also identified pathogenic mutations in the LRP2 gene in ...
Diagnosis GeneReviews The diagnosis of Donnai-Barrow syndrome (DBS) is based on the recognition of characteristic clinical features combined with a distinctive pattern of low-molecular-weight proteinuria. It is confirmed by detection of mutations in LRP2, which codes for the protein low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 2 precursor (megalin)....
Clinical Description GeneReviews Information on long-term follow-up and natural history of Donnai-Barrow syndrome (DBS) is limited to a few individuals because many affected pregnancies are interrupted or result in perinatal death secondary to congenital malformations. The following information is based on the citations Holmes & Schepens [1972], Donnai & Barrow [1993], Schowalter et al [1997], Devriendt et al [1998], Avunduk et al [2000], Chassaing et al [2003], Chen [2007], Kantarci et al [2007], and Patel et al [2007], and reviewed in Pober et al [2009] unless otherwise indicated....
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews Currently, the phenotype cannot be predicted by the genotype. The explanation for the presence of intrafamilial phenotypic variation, which can be considerable among family members with the same genotype, is unknown [Kantarci et al 2007]....
