Curry–Jones syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by congenital brain, osseous, cutaneous, ocular, and intestinal anomalies.

Signs and symptoms

[edit]

Individuals with this condition usually have the following symptoms:[1]

Some individuals may also display the following features:

Causes

[edit]

This condition is caused by mosaic missense mutations in the SMO gene on chromosome 7. The causative mutation is typically present in less than 50% of an individual's body tissues. It is suggested that the mutation occurs post-zygotically during early embryonic development.[2]

Management

[edit]

Management of Curry–Jones syndrome depends on an individual's symptom profile.

Epidemiology

[edit]

Curry–Jones syndrome has been described in 13 people worldwide.[2][3][4][5][6][7]

Discovery

[edit]

The first case of Curry–Jones syndrome was reported by Cynthia J.R. Curry et al. at the 1987 David W. Smith Workshop on Malformations and Morphogenesis. A similar patient was reported by M.C. Jones.[8] By 1988, it was recognized by the name of Curry–Jones syndrome.[9]
