Hereditary neurocutaneous angiomata

MedGen UID:
226898
Concept ID:
C1275084
Neoplastic Process
Synonyms: Angioma hereditary neurocutaneous; HEMANGIOMATOSIS, DISSEMINATED; SPINAL ARTERIAL VENOUS MALFORMATIONS WITH CUTANEOUS HEMANGIOMAS
SNOMED CT: Hereditary neurocutaneous angiomata (403775003); Hereditary neurocutaneous vascular malformations (403775003)
Modes of inheritance:
Autosomal dominant inheritance
MedGen UID:
141047
Concept ID:
C0443147
Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in heterozygotes. In the context of medical genetics, an autosomal dominant disorder is caused when a single copy of the mutant allele is present. Males and females are affected equally, and can both transmit the disorder with a risk of 50% for each child of inheriting the mutant allele.

Definition

A rare genetic vascular anomaly characterized by the presence of angiomatous lesions affecting the skin, brain, and spinal cord. Lesions of the central nervous system have a marked tendency to bleed. There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1988. [from ORDO]

Clinical features

From HPO
Hemangioma
MedGen UID:
5477
Concept ID:
C0018916
Neoplastic Process
A hemangioma is a benign tumor characterized by blood-filled spaces lined by benign endothelial cells. A hemangioma characterized by large endothelial spaces (caverns) is called a cavernous hemangioma (in contrast to a hemangioma with small endothelial spaces, which is called capillary hemangioma).
Hematuria
MedGen UID:
5488
Concept ID:
C0018965
Disease or Syndrome
The presence of blood in the urine. Hematuria may be gross hematuria (visible to the naked eye) or microscopic hematuria (detected by dipstick or microscopic examination of the urine).
Gastrointestinal hemorrhage
MedGen UID:
8971
Concept ID:
C0017181
Pathologic Function
Hemorrhage affecting the gastrointestinal tract.
Hemiparesis
MedGen UID:
6783
Concept ID:
C0018989
Finding
Loss of strength in the arm, leg, and sometimes face on one side of the body. Hemiplegia refers to a complete loss of strength, whereas hemiparesis refers to an incomplete loss of strength.
Horner syndrome
MedGen UID:
5616
Concept ID:
C0019937
Disease or Syndrome
An abnormality resulting from a lesion of the sympathetic nervous system characterized by a combination of unilateral ptosis, miosis, and often ipsilateral hypohidrosis and conjunctival injection.
