39937001: Skin structure (body structure)

SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure (body structure)\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...

\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Skin structure

\Body tissue structure\Structure of soft tissue (body structure)\Skin and/or subcutaneous tissue structure (body structure)\Skin structure

\Body region structure\Skin and/or subcutaneous tissue structure (body structure)\Skin structure

A rare type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome characterised by connective tissue defects (joint laxity of finger joints and knees, small joint hypermotility and tissue fragility), vascular complications (atrioventricular defect, symptomatic cerebral aneurysm, vascular dissection) and frontoparietally accentuated polymicrogyria of the cobblestone variant. Specific brain anomalies (including cerebrocortical dysplasia, cerebellar microcysts and white matter anomalies) are present in all patients. Most of the affected individuals have developmental delay and may develop epilepsy. Additional clinical features include spontaneous intracranial hypotension, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, headache, chronic pain syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, plexopathy, translucent skin and clubfoot. Dysmorphic features such as eye anomalies (strabismus, bilateral hyperopia, esotropia, proptosis), pinched nose, thin upper lip, crowded teeth and retrognathia are also reported.
