genitopatellar syndrome
MONDO:0011640
Genitopatellar syndrome is a rare congenital patellar anomaly syndrome characterized by patellar aplasia or hypoplasia associated with microcephaly, characteristic coarse facial features (microcephaly, bitemporal narrowing, large, broad nose with high nasal bridge, prominent cheeks and micro/retrognathia or prognathism), arthrogryposis of the hips and knees, urogenital abnormalities and intellectual deficiency.

Genitopatellar syndrome
Genitopatellar syndrome is a rare disorder consisting of congenital flexion contractures of the lower extremities, abnormal or missing patellae, and urogenital anomalies. Additional symptoms include microcephaly, severe psychomotor disability. In 2012, it was shown that mutations in the gene KAT6B cause the syndrome. Genitopatellar syndrome (GTPTS) can be caused by heterozygous mutation in the KAT6B gene on chromosome 10q22. The Say-Barber-Biesecker variant of Ohdo syndrome, which has many overlapping features with GTPTS, can also be caused by heterozygous mutation in the KAT6B gene.He exhibited hypoplastic patellae, intellectual disability, scrotal hypoplasia, skeletal deformities, renal anomalies, flattened nasal bridge, and short stature. This condition is characterized by genital abnormalities, missing or underdeveloped kneecaps, and severe intellectual disability.
