Abstract
Mutations in the MECOM gene (MDS1 and EVI1 complex locus) may be one of the causes of a rare combination of congenital radioulnar synostosis resulting in extremely limited forearm pronation and supination, and amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia. The clinical spectrum of the disease can range from isolated radioulnar synostosis with or without hematologic manifestations to severe bone marrow failure without skeletal abnormalities. Other phenotypic manifestations include clinodactyly, brachydactyly, cardiac and renal malformations, presenile hearing loss, and B-cell deficiency. In view of the heterogeneity of phenotypic manifestations of the disease, the term “MECOM-associated syndrome” was proposed for all patients with mutations in the MECOM gene. Here we report 3 pediatric cases of MECOM-associated syndrome with different clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic options, and outcomes. The patient’s parents agreed to use the information, including the child’s photo, in scientific research and publications.
