Martinez-Frias, syndrome
|
Extremely rare. Autosomal recessive transmission of a mutation of the RFX6 gene (6q22.1).
Association of:
- hypoplasia of the pancreas
- intestinal atresia
- aplasia/hypoplasia of the gallbladder (or bile ducts)
- frequent esotracheal fistula.
Close to the Mitchell-Riley syndrome where neonatal diabetes is present, without esotracheal fistula.
Anesthetic implications:
growth retardation, esotracheal fistula, cholestasis
