위장관에서 용종성 병변이 있을 때 Cowden 증후군의 감별이 필요하며 소아 연령에서는 모든 증상이 발현되지 않으므로 추적 관찰이 필요하리라 판단된다. 특히, 식도의 극세포증은 모습이 독특하고 거의 대부분의 증례에서 보고되고 있어 최근 Cowden 증후군의 진단 시 질병특유의 기준으로 활용되기도 하므로 특히 염두에 둘 필요가 있으며, 그러나 소아 연령에서는 적절한 나이가 될 때까지는 극세포증의 발현이 지연될 수 있음도 반드시 고려하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

저자는 전반적인 치아우식증을 주소로 개인 의원에서 경희대학교병원 소아치과에 의뢰된 10세 여아에서 Robinow syndrome 의 드문 증례의 치료를 시행하고 문헌을 고찰하여 다 음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 전신소견으로 전두부 돌출, 양안격리, 넓은 안검렬, 들창코 등을 보이는 태아모습의 특정적 안모와 작은키, 짧은 팔, 굽은 손가락, 생식기의 미발육 등이 관찰되었고 전반적인 발육지연이 있었다. 2. 구내소견으로 치아우식, 치아총생, 구개수의 미발육, 수술받은 구개열, 구호흡이 관찰되었다. 3. 이 증후군에서 드물게 보여지는 정신지체, 청각장애, 삼출성 중이염을 동반하였다. 4. 가족력은 발견할수 없었다. 5. 전신마취하에 전반척인 치과치료와 이비인후과치료를 함께 시행하였다. 6. Robinow 증후군은 여러 합병증을 수반할 수 있으므로 타과와의 협력하에 전반적인 검사를 시행하고 포괄적인 협력진료가 요구된다.

Nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with variable conditions, including multiple basal cell carcinoma, numerous keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KOTs) in the jaws, ectopic calcification of the falx cerebri, bifid ribs, macrocephaly, kyphoscoliosis, cleft palate, frontal and temporal bossing, mild ocular hypertelorism, mild mandibular prognathism, vertebral fusion, and so on. A 16-year-old boy visited the Dong-A University Medical Center, requiring diagnosis and treatment of multiple cystic lesions. He presented with many conditions related to NBCCS, including multiple KOTs, bifid rib, cleft lip, frontal bossing, mild ocular hypertelorism, and mild mandibular prognathism. No characteristic cutaneous manifestations (nevoid basal cell carcinoma) were observed in this patient. We report on a case of multiple KOTs associated with NBCCS with a review of the literature.

Basal cell nevus syndrome is a rare inherited disorder characterized by mulitple cutaneous basal cell carcinoma, pits of the palms and soles, cysts of the jaws, skeletal abnormalities and ectopic calcifications. Currently there are new lines of investigation based on biomolecular studies, which aim at identifying the molecules responsible for these cysts and thus early allowing an early diagnosis of these patients. We report a case of a 9-year-old boy with the various manifestation of basal cell nevus syndrome, which are multiple odontogenic keratocysts, pits of the soles, bifid ribs, ectopic calcification, macrocephaly, and hypertelorism, etc. Total five odontogenic keratocysts were found. For the reduction of the size of the odon-togenic keratocysts, following preoperative marsupialization, there were surgically enucleated. And the impacted upper right lateral incisor and canine are tracted orthodontically.

Autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 20 (SCAR20; OMIM #616354) is a recently described disorder that is characterized by ataxia, intellectual disability, cerebellar atrophy, macrocephaly, coarse face, and absent speech. It is caused by loss-of-function mutations in SNX14. To date, all cases with homozygous pathogenic variants have been identified in consanguineous families. This report describes the first Korean cases of SCAR20 family caused by homozygous variants in SNX14. Two siblings were referred to our clinic because of severe global developmental delay. They presented similar facial features, including a high forehead, long philtrum, thick lips, telecanthus, depressed nasal bridge, and broad base of the nose. Because the older sibling was unable to walk and newly developed ataxia, repeated brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed at the age of 4 years, revealing progressive cerebellar atrophy compared with MRI performed at the age of 2 years. The younger sibling's MRI revealed a normal cerebellum at the age of 2 years. Whole-exome sequencing was performed, and homozygous variants, such as c.2746-2A>G, were identified in SNX14 from the older sibling. Sanger sequencing confirmed homozygous SNX14 variants in the two siblings as well as a heterozygous variant in both parents. This report extends our knowledge of the phenotypic and mutational spectrum of SCAR20. We also highlight the importance of deep phenotyping for the diagnosis of SCAR20 in individuals with developmental delay, ataxia, cerebellar atrophy, and distinct facial features.

뮤코다당증 제3A형(Mucopolysaccharidosis IIIA, Sanfillippo syndrome type A)은 heparan sulfate 대사에 관여하는 heparan N-sulfatase의 결핍으로 유발되는 리소좀 축적 질환이다. 본 연구는 대두증과 발달 지연을 보이는 5세 환아를 대상으로 하였다. 환아 소변의 glycosaminoglycan은 26 g/moL creatinine으로 증가되어 있었고(참고치: <7 g/moL creatinine), 소변의 전기영동 검사에서는 heparan sulfate 분획이 뚜렷하게 관찰되었다. 피부 섬유아세포에서 측정한 heparan N-sulfatase 활성도는 0.2 pmol/min/mg protein으로 매우 감소되어 있었다(참고치: 9-64 pmol/min/mg protein). 중합효소연쇄반응-염기서열분석법에 의한 SGSH 유전자 검사에서는 c.1040C>T (p.S347F) 및 c.703G>A (p.D235N) 돌연변이가 각각 이형접합체 양상으로 나타났다. 이에 생화학적 검사 및 분자유전학적 검사를 통해 뮤코다당증 제3A형으로 확진된 첫 번째 한국인 사례를 보고하는 바이다.

Enzyme replacement of therapy (ERT) is one of the most promising therapeutic strategies for the treatment of lysosomal storage disorders. ERT is available in three types of Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS): for MPS I (Aludrazyme$^{(R)}$), MPS II (Elaprase$^{(R)}$) and MPS VI (Naglazyme$^{(R)}$) patients who are over 5 years old. But recently, early diagnosis can be done by expert clinicians and even in prenatal case. We describe the case of ERT under 5 years old MPS patients. Up to June, 2010 in Samsung Medical Center, there are 6patients who were diagnosed as MPS and started ERT under 5 years old. 3 patients were MPS I, 3 patients were MPS II. 2 patient who was diagnosed as MPS I was female and others were male. Their age at diagnosis were 4 to 37month-old (4, 13, 16, 25, 27, 37 month-old) and they are now 9 to 60 month-old (9, 39, 32, 81, 60 month-old). The youngest patient was started ERT at 4 month-old and others were started at their 13 to 49 month-old (13, 29, 27, 28, 49 month-old). First manifested symptoms of patients were macrocephaly, kyphosis and coarse face appearance. Especially, in 2 of them, one was MPS I and the other was MPS II had elder brother with same disease. And the youngest one was diagnosed by the iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene analysis from chorionic villi sampling. His mother knew that she was a heterozygous carrier of IDS gene mutation because her younger brother died from MPS II. All of them confirmed as MPS by the enzyme assay in leukocytes and fibroblast skin culture. We started ERT with ${\alpha}$-L-iduronidase(Aldurazyme$^{(R)}$) to MPS I and did recombinant human iduronate-2-sulfatase (Elaprase$^{(R)}$) to MPS II patients as recommended dose as over 5 years old. But for MPS II patient who was 4 month old, we started ERT by recombinant human IDS (Elaprase$^{(R)}$) with reduced dose 0.1 mg/kg and increased dose every 2 weeks by 0.1mg/kg up to 0.5mg/kg IV infusion. During ERT, all patients had no adverse effects and the excretion of GAGs were decreased. We have evaluated other clinical symptoms such as liver/ spleen volume, heart function and neurologic evaluation. We describe a successful ERT to MPS I and MPS II patient under 5 years old without any adverse event. It indicates that ERT in young children are well tolerated and that it has several effects which may confer clinical benefits with long-term therapy.
