From HandWiki
Bosch–Boonstra–Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome
Other namesBBSOAS[1]
This condition is inherited via autosomal dominant manner.
Causesmutations in the NR2F1 gene

Bosch–Boonstra–Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome is a rare autosomally inherited condition characterised by developmental delay, intellectual disability and decreased visual acuity.[2][3][4]

Presentation

All patients described have suffered from developmental delay, intellectual disability (intelligence quotient range 48–74) and decreased visual acuity. Ocular abnormalities include small discs, pale discs, disc excavation, strabismus and latent nystagmus.

Other features of this condition are somewhat variable and include:

  • Facial indicators
    • Protruding ears
    • Helical anomalies
    • Small nasal ridge
    • High nasal bridge
    • Upturned nose
    • Epicanthal folds
    • Upslanting palpebral fissures
  • Skeletal indicators

Genetics

Management

Epidemiology

This condition is considered to be rare with fewer than 50 cases described in the modern literature.

History

This condition was first described in 2014.[2]
