Green List (high evidence)

HGNC 15977. Spondylocostal dysostosis (SCD) is an inherited disorder that is characterized by the presence of extensive hemivertebrae, truncal shortening and abnormally aligned ribs. Pathogenic variants in HES7 are associated with congenital defects in vertebral, heart and neural tube formation and shortened stature. Phenotype includes severe segmental defects of the vertebrae (SDV) and dextrocardia with situs inversus, rib anomalies, including reduced number/fusion. Less prevalent features can include including myelomeningocele, spina bifida occulta and/or Chiari II malformation.
Early onset, some prenatally ascertained.
OMIM reports 7 probands seen within 3 families with SCDO (4 from consanguineous Arab family, and other patients from 2 additional families (from same geographical region)). Frameshift and missense mutations reported.
Note one seminal author (Sparrow).
