General Information of Disease (ID: DISBSFV8)

Disease Name Autosomal dominant Kenny-Caffey syndrome
Synonyms
Kenny-Caffey syndrome, type 2; dwarfism, cortical thickening of tubular bones and transient hypocalcemia; dwarfism, cortical thickening of tubular bones, and transient hypocalcemia; KCS2; Kenny syndrome; Kenny-Caffey syndrome, autosomal dominant; Kenny-Caffey syndrome type 2
Definition
An autosomal dominant form of Kenny-Caffey Syndrome due to mutation(s) in the FAM111A gene, encoding protein FAM111A. This condition is characterized by transient hypocalcemia, delayed closure of the anterior fontanel, eye anomalies, including microphthalmia, proportionate short stature, and cortical thickening and medullary stenosis of the tubular bones.
