Schneckenbecken dysplasia (or chondrodysplasia with snail-like pelvis) is a prenatally lethal spondylodysplastic dysplasia.
Features include always present findings: Thoracic hypoplasia, Nonimmune hydrops fetalis, Snail-like ilia, and Narrow vertebral interpedicular distance and others; and common findings: Short nose and Bilateral talipes equinovarus. 30 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Bones and joints | 5 | Narrow vertebral interpedicular distance, Short long bone, Ovoid vertebral bodies |
SLC35D1 function has not been fully characterized.
Schneckenbecken dysplasia is caused by mutations in the SLC35D1 gene on chromosome 1.
Genetic testing for SLC35D1 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Phenotype severity distribution: 14 always present features, 2 common features.
Estimated prevalence: <1 in 1,000,000 (VERY_RARE).
No clinical trials have been registered for schneckenbecken dysplasia.
