Genetic Diseases
~3-4% of all children are born with a major genetic
or congenital disease
Not only extremely rare diseases
Importance of correct diagnosis
Variability of expression
Chromosomal
Microscopically detectable cytogenetic aberrations
Arises early in gestation
Most frequently de novo events and are not
inherited
Single Gene or Monogenic
Single Gene or Monogenic
Transmitted according to Mendelian laws of
inheritance
Includes a large number of rare diseases,
syndromes or morphological traits
Dominant, recessive or X-linked conditions may be
associated with a high risk of recurrence.
Polygenic-Multifactorial
Includes relatively common developmental defects
Have familial occurrence that cannot be attributed
to change alone or solely to the action of
environmental influences
Have patterns of transmission that do not follow
Mendelian laws of inheritance
May include birth defects such as congenital heart
disease, anencephaly, spina bifida, and cleft
lip/palate
Autosomal Dominant/Recessive
X-Linked Dominant/Recessive
Environmental-Genetic Interactions -Teratogens
Examples include:
Physical agents (radiation)
Infectious agents (rubella)
Maternal conditions (diabetes)
Maternal diet/drugs (alcohol/mood enhancers)
Uterine factors (amniotic bands)
Teratogens
Fetal susceptibility
Dose relationship
Hereditary predisposition
Chromosomal
Syndromes
Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21)

Apert Syndrome
Crouzon Syndrome
Ectrodactyly-Ectodermal DysplasiaClefting Syndrome (EEC Syndrome)
Neurofibromatosis
Neurofibromatosis
Neurofibromatosis
Noonan Syndrome
Stickler Syndrome
Treacher Collins Syndrome
Van Der Woude Syndrome
Autosomal Recessive
Oro-Facial-Digital Syndrome Type II
Dx made on the basis of oral, facial and digital
anomalies
OFD type I fibrous band clefting or the alveolar
ridges, missing lateral incisors, sparsehair and dry
scalp. Not observed in males implying X-linked
dominant or sex limited dominant inheritance
Type II – autosomal recessive, occurs in both sexes
Hearing
Speech
X-linked Diseases
Oto-Palatal-Digital Syndrome
Variable manifestations
Cleft palate
Hearing
Speech
Bone
PolygeneticMultifactorial
Syndromes
Cleft lip + Palate
Pierre –Robin Sequence/syndrome
Sporadic syndromes
Goldenhar Syndrome
