Arthrogryposis hub Arthrogryposis is a musculoskeletal disorder, which is characterized by multiple joint contractures found throughout the body at birth. It occurs in 1 out of every 3000 live births. The major cause of arthrogryposis is fetal akinesia due to fetal abnormalities or maternal disorders.

Don't offer to open a door or carry books or a lunch tray for Jennifer Weaver. She'd rather do it herself, thank you. Although she admires chivalry, Jennifer cherishes her hard-earned independence even more. Born with a rare and crippling condition called arthrogryposis, 16-year-old Jennifer has managed to overcome many of the physical limitations that are now a distant memory. "I knew when she threw her crutches across the room at age 3 while yelling 'I hate those things!' that she was a fighter," recalls Jennifer's mom Pam. Today, Jennifer is manager of her high school drill team, a star soloist in the school choir and works out daily at the gym. About the only physical challenge she encounters these days are stairs, which can be tricky to negotiate with leg braces. Often at school, Jennifer's football playing buddies scoop her up, toss her over their shoulders and run up the stairs, while petite, 100 pound Jennifer yells in protest that she can do it herself. What is arthrogryposis?

64. ~*~ Night Star's Castle ~*~ Most types of Arthrogryposis Multiplex congenita are not inherited; however, a rare arthrogryposis,present in 40% of cases, is a condition called amyoplasia. http://www.geocities.com/castlenightstar/arthroeng.html

~ Overview ~ ~ What is it? ~ Arthrogryposis translated from the Greek literally means "curved or hooked joints." Hence, this term is used to describe multiple joint contractures present at birth. There are many causes for congenital multiple joint contractures, and could be due to abnormal nerve or muscle development in the womb. However, the commonest form of arthrogryposis, present in 40% of cases, is a condition called amyoplasia. The child pictured at left looks much like I did when I was born. The boy in the painting below shows that AMC children lived past birth and it seems to have been painted in approx. 1700s. (Photo taken from Arthrogryposis: A Text Atlas ~ What causes it? ~ The cause of arthrogryposis is varied, and not entirely understood. Certainly, in many cases, abnormal nerve, muscle and connective tissue development is involved. Lack of movement of intrauterine movement is also responsible, as in oligohydramnios. Genetic factors do play a part in many cases, as do environmental factors like drugs. Incidence of arthrogryposis is one in 3,000 live births. ~ What are the symptoms? ~

Disorder Zone Archives Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita Dylan Brown Jess Daniel Introduction Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) is a musculoskeletal disorder characterized by the presence of multiple joint contractures (limitation of the range of motion of a joint) at birth. In some cases, only a few joints may be affected, however, in the classic cases of AMC, hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, hips, feet, and knees are affected. In the more severe cases, joints in the back and jaw can be affected as well. In addition to having joint contractures, children also experience muscle weakness, which further limits movement. There may be as many as 10 to 20 different arthrogrypotic disorders, all with similar joint manifestations. However, the most common form of AMC is amyoplasia. There are many different causes of AMC, but typically it is a result of either problems with joint growth and development, decreased fetal movement (not enough room in the uterus to move), or problems with spinal development in the first 3 months of pregnancy. AMC occurs in 1 out of every 3,000 live births. In most cases, AMC is not inherited and does not occur more than once in a family. However, in about 30% of the cases, a genetic cause has been identified.

It appears to be a new form of an autosomal recessive disorder. Introduction Arthrogryposis is a syndrome involving multiple persistent joint contractures in the intact skeleton at birth. Severity of the condition is variable. It is classified into two types, type I with only distal limb involvement, and type II with other defects. Numerous aetiological causes have been implicated, including genetic. In the genetic variety autosomal recessive, autosomal dominant and X-linked recessive forms of transmission have been reported. The classical form (type I), called amyoplasia (7), is always sporadic. Case report A 22-day old male neonate was admitted to the General Hospital Peradeniya, Sri Lanka, with abdominal distension and vomiting. He was a product of a consanguineous marriage. The mother was 28 years old at the time of conception. She had an uncomplicated pregnancy. The child was born at full term as a normal vaginal delivery in an estate hospital. A week later the mother noticed gradual distension of the neonate's abdomen. Subesquently, the child started vomiting several times a day, and was constipated for several days at a time.

ARTHROGRYPOSIS MULTIPLEX CONGENITA (AMC) Definition Epidemiology Pathophysiology Etiology ... Reference Page Definition AMC is a nonprogressive congenital neuromuscular syndrome characterized by severe joint contractures, muscle weakness, and fibrosis. Epidemiology AMC occurs in 1 out of every 3000 live births. Amyoplasia, characterized by fatty and fibrous tissue replacement of the limb muscles, is the most common form (43%). Pathophysiology The principle cause of AMC is believed to be decreased fetal movements (akinesia) caused by maternal or fetal abnormalities. It is associated with neurogenic and myopathic disorders. It is believed that the neuropathic form of AMC involves a deterioration in the anterior horn cell leading to muscle weakness and fibrosis. Etiology Several factors are implicated in AMC including hyperthermia of the fetus, prenatal virus, fetal vascular compromise, septum of the uterus, decreased amniotic fluid, muscle and/or connective tissue developmental abnormalities. Clinical Manifestations The primary joints involved (in order of decreasing prevalence) include the foot, hip, wrist, knee, elbow, and shoulder. AMC is typically symmetrical and

MainMenu Back Next Index A pivotal step in the management of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita is to determine its cause. The cause of the arthrogryposis multiplex congenita determines the prognosis and recurrence rate of the disease. There are many causes of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita in neonates. Smith’s book on recognizable patterns of human malformation lists arthrogryposis multiplex congenita as a feature of over 100 syndromes. The differential diagnosis among these syndromes is made by analyzing the distribution of the arthrogryposis, the presence of facial dysmorphism, and other associated findings. Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita may involve the distal or the proximal joints. Involvement of the distal joints is more frequent than involvement of the proximal joints. Neonates with distal arthrogryposis often have a very typical hand position (Figure 152.1). This typical hand position is frequently present in trisomy 13 and 18 syndromes, Pena-Shokeir I and II syndromes, and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome. Proximal arthrogryposis usually involves the shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees. Proximal arthrogryposis occurs in neonates with amyoplasia congenita.
