Symbol NISDS
Location 8p21.1
Name neuro-immuno-skeletal dysplasia syndrome
Corresponding gene EXTL3
Main clinical features
  • platyspondyly (red boxes) with progressively severe kyphosis with increasing age, delay in carpal bone ossification, coxa valga, and small capital femoral epiphyses; elbow radiographs show dislocated radial heads with dysplastic radial heads
  • complete or nearly complete absence of T cells but normal counts of B and natural killer (NK) cells
  • motor development appears to be seriously affected by the EXTL3-related neuro-skeletal features in most of the reported affected individuals
  • death often in early infancy
  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
    Function/system disorder defense and immunity
    osteo-articular
    Type disease
    Remark(s)
  • biallelic mutations in EXTL3 disturb glycosaminoglycan synthesis (PMID: 28132690))
