Learn About Pena-Shokeir Syndrome Type 2

What is the definition of Pena-Shokeir Syndrome Type 2?

Cerebro-oculo-facio-skeletal (COFS) syndrome is a degenerative disorder that primarily involves the brain, eyes, and spinal cord. Affected individuals have mild to severe intellectual disability, severely reduced muscle tone (hypotonia), impaired reflexes, vision impairment, and involuntary eye movements. Children with COFS syndrome have distinctive facial features, including low-set ears, small eyes, small head size (microcephaly), and a small jaw (micrognathia). They may also have abnormalities of the skull, limbs, heart, and kidneys. Individuals with COFS syndrome are often diagnosed at birth. In many cases, the cause of the disorder is unknown. Some children with this condition have genetic changes in the ERCC1, ERCC2, ERCC5, or ERCC6 gene. COFS syndrome is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.
