Informations about the disease
Pathogenic variants in the RUNX2 gene are the cause of cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD). Typical clinical symptoms of CCD affect the clavicles (hypoplasia or aplasia), the fontanelles and cranial sutures (large fontanelles and cranial sutures that may be wide open even in adulthood) and, in many cases, dental anomalies (late eruption of permanent teeth, supernumerary teeth). Often patients also have a characteristic facies (broad, flat forehead; hypertelorism; midface hypoplasia; pointed chin). Frequent infections may occur. CCD is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with high penetrance and variable expressivity.
An inconspicuous test does not conclusively rule out a genetic cause of the symptoms.
