Symbol PHLS
Location 7q32.1
Corresponding gene SMO
Main clinical features
  • developmental anomalies affecting the brain (hypothalamic hamartoma and microcephaly), heart (atrioventricular septal defect), skeleton (postaxial polydactyly, narrow chest, and shortening of long bones), and enteric nervous system (aganglionosis); also gelastic epilepsy
  • skeletal development including postaxial polydactyly is a consistent feature
  • Genetic determination autosomal recessive
    Function/system disorder cardiovascular
    digestive tract/gastrointestinal
    neurology
    osteo-articular
    Type disease
    Remark(s) . bi-allelic loss-of-function SMO variations leading to severely altered HH-signal transduction and causing pleiotropic developmental anomalies (PMID: 32413283))
