Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Stuve-Wiedemann syndrome (STWS) is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by bowing of the long bones and other skeletal anomalies, episodic hyperthermia, and respiratory and feeding distress usually resulting in early death (Dagoneau et al., 2004).

Clinical Description OMIM Stuve and Wiedemann (1971) reported 2 sisters and a first-cousin male with congenital bowing of the long bones. Other features included short stature, camptodactyly with ulnar deviation, and contractures of the elbows and fingers. Radiographically, the long bones ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In patients with Stuve-Wiedemann syndrome, Dagoneau et al. (2004) identified mutations in the leukemia inhibitory factor receptor gene (LIFR; see, e.g., 151443.0001-151443.0003). Some of the patients had been reported earlier by Al-Gazali et al. (1996, 2003), Chabrol et ...
