Lethal congenital contracture syndrome 3
MONDO:0012656Lethal congenital contracture syndrome type 3 is a rare arthrogryposis syndrome characterized by clinical features identical to Lethal congenital contracture syndrome type 2 (i.e. multiple congenital contactures (typically extended elbows and flexed knees), micrognathia, anterior horn cells degeneration, skeletal muscle atrophy (mainly in the lower limbs), in the absence of hydrops, pterygia or bone fractures), but without bladder enlargement.
Also known as: LCCS3, PIP5K1C lethal congenital contracture syndrome, lethal congenital contractural syndrome 3, lethal congenital contracture syndrome 3, lethal congenital contracture syndrome caused by mutation in PIP5K1C, lethal congenital contracture syndrome type 3, multiple contracture syndrome, Israeli Bedouin type B
