Entry
H03031                      Disease                                
Name
Marden-Walker syndrome
Description
Marden-Walker syndrome (MWKS) is a very rare disorder characterized by joint contractures, cleft palate, blepharophimosis, immobile facies, diminished muscular bulk, developmental delay, and hindbrain malformations. It has been reported that mutations in PIEZO2 cause this syndrome. PIEZO2 encodes a widely expressed stretch-activated ion channel.
