As very little seems to be known about it I would be very grateful if you can provide some information about the implications and consequences of the condition. Thanks. Answer Aarskog syndrome is a rare condition - only 100 or so cases are known worldwide. It is caused by a faulty gene, or genes, carried on the X chromosome. It can cause a number of physical abnormalities but a child with the syndrome won't necessarily have every one of the characteristic features. These include short stature, wide separation of the eyes, a small nose with a broad bridge, abnormally-shaped ears, short fingers and toes, undescended testicles and inguinal (groin) hernias. There may be problems with vision including a squint, astigmatism or large corneas. Some children will have a 'caved in' appearance to their chest and a prominent umbilicus (navel). Delayed puberty may also occur but the condition is not usually associated with intellectual impairment. There is no specific treatment for Aarskog syndrome but your grandson would be expected to have a normal lifespan and he should be able to attend mainstream school. He might need surgery at some point if, for example, he has an undescended testicle or a hernia.
