Majeed et al. (1989) reported 2 brothers and a female cousin who had chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO; 259680) and congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA); the brothers also had neutrophilic dermatosis or Sweet syndrome (608068). The clinical course of ... |

In 2 consanguineous Arab families with Majeed syndrome, previously reported by Majeed et al. (1989, 2000, 2001), Ferguson et al. (2005) identified homozygosity for a missense mutation (S734L; 605519.0001) and a 2-bp deletion (605519.0002) in the LPIN2 gene, ... |
Diagnosis GeneReviews | The diagnosis of Majeed syndrome is based on the following findings [El-Shanti & Ferguson 2007, Ferguson & El-Shanti 2007]: ... Gene SymbolTest MethodMutations DetectedMutation Detection Frequency by Test Method 1Test AvailabilityLPIN2Sequence analysis / mutation scanning 2Sequence variants 3See footnote 4 | Clinical1. The ability of the test method used to detect a mutation that is present in the indicated gene2. Sequence analysis and mutation scanning of the entire gene can have similar mutation detection frequencies; however, mutation detection rates for mutation scanning may vary considerably between laboratories depending on the specific protocol used.3. Examples of mutations detected by sequence analysis may include small intragenic deletions/insertions and missense, nonsense, and splice site mutations; typically, exonic or whole-gene deletions/duplications are not detected. 4. The mutation detection frequency using sequence analysis in individuals with CRMO and microcytic CDA is 100%; the mutation detection frequency using mutation scanning is unknown.Interpretation of test results. For issues to consider in interpretation of sequence analysis results, click here.Information on specific allelic variants may be available in Molecular Genetics (see Table A. Genes and Databases and/or Pathologic allelic variants).Testing Strategy To confirm/establish the diagnosis in a proband Clinical evaluation to identify the three components of Majeed syndrome (may require bone biopsy of affected osteolytic lesion, bone marrow biopsy to document dyserythropoiesis, and skin biopsy to document neutrophilic dermatosis)Sequence analysis/mutation scanning of LPIN2 in those who meet clinical diagnostic criteriaCarrier testing for at-risk relatives requires prior identification of the disease-causing mutations in the family.Note: Carriers are heterozygotes for this autosomal recessive disorder and are not at risk of developing the disorder. Prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for at-risk pregnancies require prior identification of the disease-causing mutations in the family.Genetically Related (Allelic) Disorders No phenotypes other than those discussed in this GeneReview are known to be associated with mutations in LPIN2.
Clinical Description GeneReviews | Majeed syndrome is characterized by chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO), congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA), and inflammatory dermatosis. ... |
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews | Although the number of individuals reported with Majeed syndrome is too small to study genotype-phenotype correlations, the affected individuals in the family with a frameshift mutation [Majeed et al 2001] appear to have a more severe course and complications than families with other classes of mutations. Conversely, another affected individual with a splice site mutation [Al-Mosawi et al 2007] and two affected Turkish brothers with a frameshift mutation [Herlin et al 2013], who were all diagnosed and treated early, had a less complicated course. It is unclear whether their milder clinical course is attributable to the earlier detection and treatment. ... |
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews | The clinical diagnosis of Majeed syndrome is straightforward once the complete triad is established, and can be confirmed by demonstrating any of the various mutations in LPIN2. However, suspicion should be raised in the presence of any component, especially with an early onset in infancy and early childhood, such as unexplained congenital anemia and multifocal osteomyelitis in infancy. ... FeatureSporadic CRMOCRMO of Majeed SyndromeAge at onsetLater onset (≤55 yrs) | Early onset (1-19 months)Frequency2-4/year1-4/monthDuration1-20 yearsLifelong RemissionFrequentRare and briefLong termBenign course for mostGrowth delayContracturesInfrequentCommonCRMO = chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitisOther disorders to consider:Chronic multifocal non-bacterial osteomyelitis in hypophosphatasia mimicking malignancy [Girschick et al 2007]Cherubism, characterized by painless bilateral, symmetric enlargement of the mandible and/or maxilla resulting from replacement of bone with multilocular cysts composed of fibrotic stromal cells and osteoclast-like cells. Onset is typically between ages two and five years. Other bones are usually not affected and the affected person is otherwise normal. The jaw lesions progress slowly until puberty when they stabilize and then regress such that by age 30 years facial abnormalities are no longer apparent. SH3BP2 is the only gene associated with cherubism. PTPN11 mutations have also been associated with a cherubism-like phenotype in a small number of patients. Inheritance is autosomal dominant.Chronic infantile neurologic, cutaneous, and articular (CINCA) syndrome, a chronic congenital inflammatory disorder characterized by cutaneous rash, neurologic impairment, and arthropathy. CINCA is caused by heterozygous mutations in CIAS1 [Aksentijevich et al 2002] and is distinguished from Majeed syndrome by the presence of neurologic involvement, joint symptoms, and a distinctive appearance (frontal bossing, protruding eyes, and limb shortening) and the absence of CDA.Deficiency of the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (DIRA), a chronic inflammatory disorder that begins in the neonatal period. It presents with generalized pustulosis and osteitis. If not recognized and treated appropriately, affected individuals can develop systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) which can be a fatal complication of the disease. DIRA is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in IL1RN [Aksentijevich et al 2009]. It is distinguished from Majeed syndrome by the absence of CDA and by the distinctive radiographic bone lesions. Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA). The CDAs are a heterogeneous group of diseases in which the anemia is predominantly caused by dyserythropoiesis and marked ineffective erythropoiesis [Wickramasinghe & Wood 2005]. Three major types (I, II, and III) have been identified, as well as a few minor types. CDA I is an autosomal dominant disorder (caused by mutations in CDAN1) characterized by macrocytic anemia and occasionally associated with acrodysostosis, nail hypoplasia, and scoliosis. In contrast, Majeed syndrome is autosomal recessive and associated with microcytic CDA and no bone dysplasia or deformity.
