What is Beals's syndrome?
Beals syndrome or congenital contract Arachnoldactyly (approx) is a rare state caused by genetic mutation. The defective gene limits the body's ability to produce fibrilines, an important substance used in the development of connective tissue. This condition creates a number of physical irregularities. Doctors treat physical therapy disorder. Disabled children usually have long, slim and narrow bodies with elongated fingers and toes. They have a limited ability to move their joints, making it difficult to straighten their fingers, fingers or other parts of the body.
Many children with Beals syndrome are born with crumpled ears, small jaws and an unusually high arc in the roof of the mouth. They may also have a release or protruding thoracic cavity. Others have the legs of the club, which are legs that turn to ankles. As they mature, these children may have difficulty in developing motor coordination skills or have a short -sighted vision.
Some of these patients have scoliosis, which is the curvature of the spine, and others have insufficientlyDeveloped muscles. Patients who have Beals syndrome sometimes have a mitral valve prolapse, a heart of a heart characterized by a defective flap between the left and lower chambers or an enlarged aortic valve. Other serious heart conditions may also occur.
This condition is similar to Marfan syndrome, other genetic disorders that affect the skeletal structure of the body and connective tissue. People who have Marfan syndrome are high, with long arms and legs, and many have flat legs, curvature of the spine, narrow face and poor vision of long distances.
Beals syndrome affects boys and girls at the same pace. It is not the prevailing of any particular ethnic group. Children will inherit a disorder from their parents.
This state also occurs when genes accidentally mutate. Even children whose parents do not have a history of disorders can be born with Beals syndrome. People whoThey see the situation because of the spontaneous mutation in their genetic structure, they can pass the defective gene to their children.
As children who have this condition, they gradually develop a greater ability to straighten their joints, but their backbone curvature tends to deteriorate. Some doctors recommend back braces or surgery to straighten the spine. Doctors can also monitor the heart or prescribe corrective glasses as needed depending on the patient.
For this disorder, no medicine was found at the beginning of 2011. Most patients can predict normal life expectancy. Adults who have Beals syndrome could benefit from genetic counseling to determine their risk of handing over to their potential descendants.
