The association of anophthalmia, arrhinia, and hypogonadism constitutes the major clinical features for Bosma arrhinia microphthalmia syndrome. However, there is variability in the presentation of this disease; arrhinia is the most constant clinical feature, which is then combined with a spectrum of anophthalmia/microphthalmia and/or hypogonadism. This rare entity is not associated with any specific genes, but the genes that are related to arrhinia and anophthalmia have been studied in an attempt to explain this phenomenon. We analyzed the PAX6 gene in a Bosma arrhinia microphthalmia syndrome patient but found no variation or mutation that could constitute or establish a causal association in our patient. |
