VA are manifold in PS, but their prevalence is unknown so far. In order to further characterize PS, we studied the prevalence of VA in 22 PS patients presenting to our outpatient clinic and reviewed 100 PS patients previously reported between 1983 and 2001. The diagnosis of vascular abnormalities was made on clinical grounds and supported with imaging studies and/or histology in 12 and seven patients out of 22, respectively. Thirty-five VA were identified in 22/22 (100%) of our patients, and more than one type of VA were present in 10 of them. Vascular tumours, portwine stains (PWS),...

Advanced var story_id = 449777; Home Campus Elephant man mystery unsolved By Mandy Heth Published: Thursday, August 7, 2003 It would take more than the "Mystery Van" and a lovable dog sidekick for one Ohio State researcher to solve a 112-year-old mystery. Dr. Charis Eng, Director of the Division of Human Genetics, was sought out by Dr. Paul Trotman, a producer for New Zealand Natural History TV, to help him with a documentary. Trotman wanted Eng to test his theory about what caused the strange deformities of Joseph Merrick. Merrick, commonly referred to as "the elephant man," was once believed to have suffered from elephantiasis. That diagnosis changed in later years to neurofibramatosis, a very common neurological disorder that causes an enlarged head, optic nerve tumors, spots of discoloration, as well as bumps and nerve tumors. "These tumors can be very significant, even life threatening, and grow anywhere in the body," said Kevin Sweet, genetic counselor at the James Cancer Center. "These tumors form on nerves throughout the body, thus the name neurofibromatosis, and can affect the development of bones and skin, resulting in disfigurement."

Driscoll, MD and Eric S. Edell, MD Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN INTRODUCTION: We report a case of recurrent massive hemoptysis in a 27-year-old man with Proteus syndrome. Proteus Syndrome is a rare, sporadic, congenital disorder characterized by overgrowth of multiple tissues [1]. It is caused by the sporadic genetic mutation of a somatic gene, which distributes in a mosaic pattern. This mutation results in sporadic growth of varying body tissues occurring primarily in the postnatal period [2]. The phenotypic presentation is varied, depending on the mosaic distribution

News Sport Weather World Service ... Newswatch Last Updated: Monday, 21 July, 2003, 17:32 GMT 18:32 UK E-mail this to a friend Printable version Elephant man mystery unravelled A computer image of how Merrick may have looked The notorious "elephant man" may have suffered from two rare disorders, according to scientists. They believe Joseph Merrick, who lived in Britain more than 100 years ago, could have suffered from type 1 neurofibromatosis (NF1) and Proteus syndrome. They believe both conditions may have combined to trigger his severe physical deformities. Their claim, which is featured in a new series on the Discovery Health channel, follows DNA tests on the man's hair and bones. 'Fairground freak' Merrick, who was born in Leicester in 1862, showed signs of deformity from the age of five. By the time he was a teenager, he was completely deformed and had been rejected by his community and his own parents. How Merrick may have looked without his affliction He was a member of a travelling circus and became widely known for his role as a fairground freak. In his mid-20s, he met a surgeon who arranged for him to be admitted to the Royal London Hospital, where he died at the age of 27.

Associated persons: Proteus Proteus Hans-Rudolf Wiedemann Description: A congenital syndrome characterised by a variety of abnormalities, most commonly by asymmetry of the arms and legs with partial enlargement of the hands and/or feet, hemihypertrophy - overgrowth of one side of the face, body, or limbs - thickening of the skin and subcutaneous tissues, subcutaneous masses, vascular disorders, epidermal naevi, and macrodactyly; accelerated growth during early years, cystiform pulmonary abnormalities, visceral manifestations from abdominal and pelvic lipomatosis, macrocephaly or asymmetry of the skull with bony prominences due to hemihypertrophy, scoliosis and kyphosis, muscle atrophy, and convulsions. Aetiology unknown. Reported cases have been isolated occurrences in families, suggesting that the condition is not hereditary. It affects both sexes equally, and has no particular racial, geographical or ethnic distribution.
