TMEM53 / Craniotubular dysplasia, Ikegawa type (OMIM # 619727)

Abstract

TMEM53 pathogenic variants have been associated with bone disease characterised by a hyperostosis of the calvaria and the skull base, mild platyspondyly, metaphyseal dysplasia and mild shortening and diaphyseal broadening of the short tubular bones.

To date, only four families have been described. We would like to better describe TMEM53-associated phenotype.
