Congenital progressive bone marrow failure-B-cell immunodeficiency-skeletal dysplasia syndrome

ORPHA:508542Disease

Also called MYSM1 deficiency

What it is

A rare multiple congenital anomalies/dysmorphic syndrome characterized by early-onset progressive bone marrow failure with anemia, leukopenia, mild thrombopenia, and myelodysplastic features, as well as non-hematologic manifestations, such as developmental delay, cataracts, facial dysmorphism, short stature, and skeletal anomalies. Immunodeficiency primarily affects B-cells and may lead to increased susceptibility to infections. Additional reported features include dry skin and eczema, cardiac anomalies, hearing loss, and reduction of cerebral volume on brain imaging.

Disease

Prevalence figures describe populations, not individuals, and are often estimates from a single study. Where the figure is an incidence or a birth prevalence, it says so.

Signs and symptoms

These ranges are how often a sign appears across everyone diagnosed, not a prediction for one person — most people have some of these and not others. Orphanet also records findings that are specifically absent in this disease; those are in the data but not listed here.

ICD-10 codes

Q87.8filed under a broader ICD-10 category — shared with 581 other rare diseases

ICD-10 has no distinct code for most rare diseases, so many are filed under the nearest available one. A shared code identifies the group, not this disease — the ORPHAcode above is what identifies it.

Related health topics

Reached through the ICD-10 categories this disease is filed under, so these describe the broader group rather than this disease specifically.
