Entry term(s) síndrome de aneurisma aórtico de Loeys-Dietz
síndrome de aneurisma de la aorta Loeys-Dietz
Scope note: Aneurisma autosómico dominante con anomalías multisistémicas causadas por un incremento de la señalización TGF-BETA debido a mutaciones en el RECEPTOR TGF-BETA de tipos I y II. Las manifestaciones craneofaciales incluyen: PALADAR HENDIDO, CRANEOSINOSTOSIS, HIPERTELORISMO, y úvula bífida. Fenotipos que recuerdan mucho al SÍNDROME DE MARFAN, al síndrome de craneosinostosis marfanoide (síndrome de Shprintzen-Goldberg), y al SÍNDROME DE EHLERS-DANLOS.

Scope note: An autosomal dominant aneurysm with multisystem abnormalities caused by increased TGF-BETA signaling due to mutations in type I or II of TGF-BETA RECEPTOR. Additional craniofacial features include CLEFT PALATE; CRANIOSYNOSTOSIS; HYPERTELORISM; or bifid uvula. Phenotypes closely resemble MARFAN SYNDROME; Marfanoid craniosynostosis syndrome (Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome); and EHLERS-DANLOS SYNDROME.
