Jackson-Weiss syndrome

Definition

Jackson-Weiss syndrome (JWS) is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by craniosynostosis, foot anomalies and great phenotypic variability. While mutations of multiple genes have been identified in syndromic craniosynostosis, the most frequently mutated gene is FGFR2. Mutations of FGFR1 have occasionally been identified in JWS.
