Bone marrow failure syndrome 6(BMFS6)

MedGen UID:
1717739
Concept ID:
C5394274
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: BMFS6; BONE MARROW FAILURE SYNDROME 6
 
Gene (location): MDM4 (1q32.1)
 
Monarch Initiative: MONDO:0030015
OMIM®: 618849

Clinical features

From HPO
Myalgia
MedGen UID:
68541
Concept ID:
C0231528
Sign or Symptom
Pain in muscle.
Chronic fatigue
MedGen UID:
760077
Concept ID:
C0518656
Finding
Subjective feeling of tiredness characterized by a lack of energy and motivation that persists for six months or longer.
Squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue
MedGen UID:
91153
Concept ID:
C0349566
Neoplastic Process
A carcinoma derived from a squamous epithelial cell of the tongue.
Anemia
MedGen UID:
1526
Concept ID:
C0002871
Disease or Syndrome
A reduction in erythrocytes volume or hemoglobin concentration.
Persistence of hemoglobin F
MedGen UID:
68693
Concept ID:
C0239941
Finding
Hemoglobin F (HbF) contains two globin alpha chains and two globin gamma chains. It is the main form of hemoglobin in the fetus during the last seven months of intrauterine development and in the half year of postnatal life. In adults it normally makes up less than one percent of all hemoglobin. This term refers to an increase in HbF above this limit. In beta thalassemia major, it may represent over 90 percent of all hemoglobin, and in beta thalassemia minor it may make up between 0.5 to 4 percent.
Increased mean corpuscular volume
MedGen UID:
81303
Concept ID:
C0302845
Finding
Larger than normal size of erythrocytes.
Bone marrow hypocellularity
MedGen UID:
383749
Concept ID:
C1855710
Finding
A reduced number of hematopoietic cells present in the bone marrow relative to marrow fat.
Osteopenia
MedGen UID:
18222
Concept ID:
C0029453
Disease or Syndrome
Osteopenia is a term to define bone density that is not normal but also not as low as osteoporosis. By definition from the World Health Organization osteopenia is defined by bone densitometry as a T score -1 to -2.5.
Recurrent sinusitis
MedGen UID:
107919
Concept ID:
C0581354
Disease or Syndrome
A recurrent form of sinusitis.
Lymphopenia
MedGen UID:
7418
Concept ID:
C0024312
Disease or Syndrome
A reduced number of lymphocytes in the blood.
Neutropenia
MedGen UID:
163121
Concept ID:
C0853697
Finding
An abnormally low number of neutrophils in the peripheral blood.
Hypothyroidism
MedGen UID:
6991
Concept ID:
C0020676
Disease or Syndrome
Deficiency of thyroid hormone.
Short telomere length
MedGen UID:
1627435
Concept ID:
C4531138
Anatomical Abnormality
An abnormal reduction in telomere length. Telomeres are non-coding, repetitive sequences of DNA at the ends of the chromosomes of eukaryotic cells which become shorter as cells divide, and when telomere attrition reaches its limit, cell proliferation arrest, senescence, and apoptosis can occur.
