A rare inflammatory necrotising systemic vasculitis that affects predominantly small vessels (i.e. small arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules) in multiple organs, including the kidney, the lungs, the skin and the peripheral nerves. This disease is an antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA)-associated autoimmune disease with little or no immune complex deposition. Evidence indicates that ANCA can activate neutrophils and monocytes and cause them to attack vessel walls. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.

A rare inflammatory optic neuropathy with characteristics of severe and persistent pain followed by subacute visual loss, a relapsing-remitting course and steroid-dependence. Involvement of both optic nerves is common and is usually sequential. Serum antibodies against aquaporin 4 are absent in most cases. Magnetic resonance imaging shows contrast enhancement of the acutely inflamed optic nerves. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A rare inherited bleeding disorder with characteristics of defective platelet adhesion and secondary coagulation defect that manifests as abnormal bleeding of variable severity occurring either spontaneously or in association with an invasive procedure. Three main subtypes are defined based on the type of von Willebrand factor defect: partial (type 1) or total (type 3) deficiency, and qualitative/functional anomalies (type 2). Caused by mutations in the VWF gene (12p13.3) encoding the multimeric VWF protein. Most often transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner, however, the mode of inheritance is autosomal recessive for type 3 VWD and for some of the type 2 subtypes. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A rare inherited bone marrow failure syndrome with manifestation of an isolated and severe decrease in the number of platelets and megakaryocytes during the first years of life that develops into bone marrow failure with pancytopenia later in childhood.

A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.

A rare inherited epidermolysis bullosa (EB) with characteristics of skin fragility and blistering at birth followed by development of photosensitivity and progressive poikilodermatous skin changes. Kindler epidermolysis bullosa (KEB) is the fourth major type of EB, after EB simplex, junctional EB, and dystrophic EB. The disease usually manifests at birth with trauma-induced skin blistering that is more prominent on extremities and tends to regress with age, becoming rare in adulthood. Caused by loss-of-function mutations in the kindlin-1 gene (FERMT1; 20p12.3). Transmission is autosomal recessive. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A rare inherited epidermolysis bullosa with characteristics of aplasia cutis congenita on the extremities, leaving behind hypopigmentation and atrophy in a whirled pattern. Generalised blistering persists during childhood and heals with cutaneous and follicular atrophy, linear and stellate scars and hypopigmentation. Skin fragility decreases with adulthood. Adult patients exhibit dyspigmentation and atrophy of the skin, scars, follicular atrophoderma, sparse body hair, progressive diffuse alopecia of the scalp, diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma, and nail changes. Dilative cardiomyopathy with heart failure complicates the disease course in young adulthood or later and may have lethal outcome. Ultra-structurally, intraepidermal splitting appears at the level of the basal keratinocytes above the hemidesmosomes. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.

A rare inherited form of cutaneous melanoma with characteristics of development of histologically confirmed melanoma in two first degrees relatives or more relatives in an affected family. It is thought to account for about 10% of all cases of cutaneous melanoma. Tends to occur earlier than non-familial melanoma. The risk of familial melanoma is closely related to a wide range of genetic alterations in susceptibility genes but also appears to be influenced by phenotypic risk factors, such as pigmentation, freckling and sun reactions. Complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors are therefore thought to underlie the disease. The most common high-penetrance susceptibility gene implicated is CDKN2A, accounting for predisposition in approximately 20% of cases. In some affected families, susceptibility is consistent with autosomal dominant inheritance but in most cases, a polygenic mode of inheritance appears likely. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A rare inherited mitochondrial disorder due to a defect in mitochondrial protein synthesis. The disease has characteristics of intrauterine growth retardation, metabolic decompensation with recurrent vomiting, persistent severe lactic acidosis, encephalopathy, seizures, failure to thrive, severe global developmental delay, poor eye contact, severe muscular hypotonia or axial hypotonia with limb hypertonia, hepatomegaly and/or liver dysfunction and/or liver failure, leading to fatal outcome in severe cases. Neuroimaging abnormalities may include corpus callosum thinning, leukodystrophy, delayed myelination and basal ganglia involvement. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A rare inherited neuromuscular disease with prenatal presentation (usually in the second trimester) of reduced fetal movements and abnormal positioning. This results in joint abnormalities that may involve both lower and upper extremities and is usually symmetric. Also associated with severe hypotonia at birth, bilateral club foot, motor development delay, mild facial weakness without ophthalmoplegia, absent deep tendon reflexes, normal motor and sensory nerve conduction velocities, no cerebellar or pyramidal involvement and progressive disease course with loss of ambulation after the first decade of life. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A rare inherited popliteal pterygium syndrome with characteristics of severe popliteal webbing, microcephaly, a typical face with short palpebral fissures, ankyloblepharon, hypoplastic nose, filiform bands between the jaws and facial clefts, genital abnormalities and additional ectodermal anomalies (absent hair, eyebrows, lashes, nails). It is often fatal in the neonatal period but survival into childhood has been reported. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
A rare inherited rheumatologic disease which causes calcification of articular fibrocartilage or hyaline cartilage. It often associates with acute synovitis and osteoarthritis. The disease manifests in early adulthood (20-40 years old) and has a variable clinical phenotype. Mutations in the ANKH gene (human homologue of progressive ankylosis; 5p15.2), encoding a protein involved in cellular inorganic pyrophosphate transport, were identified in some cases of familial CPPD. Other familial cases have been linked to mutation in the Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Super Family member 11B (TNFRSF11B) gene coding for osteoprotegerin (OPG) Other causative genes are yet to be determined. Has an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance with variable penetrance. A component that is no longer current, useful, appropriate or acceptable.
