General Information of Disease (ID: DIS5HFLJ)

Disease Name Ferro-cerebro-cutaneous syndrome
Synonyms FCCS; cerebro-cutaneous syndrome with iron overload
Definition
Ferro-cerebro-cutaneous syndrome is a rare, genetic, metabolic liver disease characterized by progressive neurodegeneration, cutaneous abnormalities, including varying degrees of ichthyosis or seborrheic dermatitis, and systemic iron overload. Patients manifest with infantile-onset seizures, encephalopathy, abnormal eye movements, axial hypotonia with peripheral hypertonia, brisk reflexes, cortical blindness and deafness, myoclonus and hepato/splenomegaly, as well as oral manifestations, including microdontia, widely spaced and pointed teeth with delayed eruption, and gingival overgrowth.|This term's classification was reviewed in the context of the Strategic Refinement project (2023) and was determined to be excluded from the 'endocrine system disorder' (MONDO:0005151) ontology branch (https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9310-0163)
