Abstract Background Osteocraniostenosis (OCS) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by premature closure of cranial sutures, gracile bones and perinatal lethality. Previously, diagnosis has only been possible postnatally on clinical and radiological features. This study describes the first prenatal diagnosis of OCS. Case presentation In this case prenatal ultrasound images were suggestive of a serious but non-lethal skeletal dysplasia. Due to the uncertain prognosis the parents were offered Whole Exome Sequencing (WES), which identified a specific gene mutation in the FAMIIIa gene. This mutation had previously been detected in two cases and was lethal in both perinatally. This established the diagnosis, a clear prognosis and allowed informed parental choice regarding ongoing pregnancy management. Conclusions This case report supports the use of targeted WES prenatally to confirm the underlying cause and prognosis of sonographically suspected abnormalities.

AbstractHypochondroplasia (HCH), a skeletal dysplasia caused by mutations in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) gene, is characterized by disproportionate short stature. The p.Asn540Lys (p.N540K) mutation accounts for ∼50 to 70% of cases of HCH, but novel FGFR3 mutations are described. We present a family with disproportionately short stature and mild radiologic findings seen in a major public pediatric hospital in Argentina. A previously undescribed heterozygous missense variant in FGFR3, NM_000142.4:667C > T; p.(Arg223Cys) was identified. The predicted phenotype correlates well with the mild auxologic and radiologic characteristics observed. In this case, disproportionately short stature raised the suspicion of skeletal dysplasia.
