Larsen-like syndrome, B3GAT3 type is a rare, genetic, primary bone dysplasia characterized by laxity, dislocations and contractures of the joints, short stature, foot deformities (e.g. clubfeet), broad tips of fingers and toes, short neck, dysmorphic facial features (hypertelorism, downslanting palpebral fissures, upturned nose with anteverted nares, high arched palate) and various cardiac malformations. Severe disease is associated with multiple fractures, osteopenia, arachnodactyly and blue sclerae. A broad spectrum of additional features, including scoliosis, radio-ulnar synostosis, mild developmental delay, and various eye disorders (glaucoma, amblyopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, ptosis), are also reported. |

Gordon syndrome, also known as distal arthrogryposis type 3, is an extremely rare multiple congenital malformation syndrome characterized by congenital contractures of hand and feet with variable degrees of severity of camptodactyly, clubfoot and, less frequently, cleft palate. Intelligence is normal but in some cases, additional abnormalities, such as short stature, kyphoscoliosis, ptosis, micrognathia, and cryptorchidism may also be present. Gordon syndrome, Marden-Walker syndrome and arthrogryposis with oculomotor limitation and electroretinal anomalies clinically and genetically overlap, and could represent variable expressions of the same condition. |

A rare genetic motor neuron disease characterized by decreased or absent fetal movements, congenital proximal and distal joint contractures (consistent with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita), and multiple congenital fractures of the long bones. Further manifestations are neonatal respiratory distress, severe muscular hypotonia, areflexia, dysphagia, congenital heart defects, and dysmorphic facial features. Muscle biopsy shows increased fiber-size variation and grouping of larger type I fibers. The disease is usually fatal in infancy due to respiratory failure. |

A rare genetic disease characterised by infantile or childhood onset of abnormal growth of hyalinised fibrous tissue, giving rise to multiple cutaneous nodules and/or pearly papules predominantly affecting the scalp, ears, neck, face, hands, and feet. Involvement of other organs results in gingival hyperplasia, osteolytic bone lesions, and joint contractures. Some patients exhibit visceral involvement with intractable diarrhoea, increased susceptibility to infections, and severe failure to thrive. |

A rare hyaline fibromatosis syndrome with characteristics of papulo-nodular skin lesions (especially around the head and neck), soft tissue masses, gingival hypertrophy, joint contractures and osteolytic bone lesions in variable degrees. Joint contractures may cripple patients and delay normal motor development if occurring in infancy. Severe gingival hyperplasia can interfere with eating and delay dentition. Histopathology analysis of involved tissues reveals cords of spindle-shaped cells embedded in an amorphous, hyaline material. |

A rare sporadic arthrogryposis syndrome with characteristics of multiple congenital contractures presenting in a very specific pattern. It is typically symmetric, involving all four limbs, with internally rotated shoulders, fully extended and fixed elbows, the wrists fixed in flexion, partially flexed fingers, hips fixed in flexion or extension, adducted or abducted and sometimes dislocated. The knees may be fixed in extension or flexion and the feet are usually in severe equinovarus position. The jaw and trunk are relatively spared. Normal limb muscle tissue is replaced by fatty, fibrous tissue. |
