Disease Name Seckel syndrome
Synonyms Seckel-type Dwarfism; Harper's syndrome; SCKL; nanocephalic Dwarfism; bird-headed dwarfism; Virchow-Seckel dwarfism
Definition
A rare autosomal recessive inherited syndrome caused by mutations in the ATR gene, RBBP8 gene, CENPJ gene, CEP152 gene, CEP63 gene, NIN gene, DNA2 gene, or TRAIP gene. It is characterized by intrauterine growth retardation, dwarfism, microcephaly, mental retardation, and a "bird-headed" facial appearance.
