  • Title: Yunis-varon syndrome: further delineation of cardiovascular and endocrine outcome.
    Author: Varghese P, Collins N, Warner G, Leitch J, Ho E, Crock P.
    Journal: Am J Med Genet A; 2014 May; 164A(5):1213-7. PubMed ID: 24610892.
    Abstract:
    Yunis-Varon syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive condition initially characterized by specific skeletal and ectodermal abnormalities, and a poor prognosis, due to neurological and cardiovascular involvement. We describe the cardiovascular and endocrine complications in a 26-year-old man who had been reported previously, adding dilated cardiomyopathy to the clinical features consistent with Yunis-Varon syndrome. Short stature, successfully treated with growth hormone, and hypertension secondary to bilateral renal artery stenosis expand the phenotype.
