A rare genetic epilepsy characterised by relatively large head circumference or macrocephaly, diminished or absent deep-tendon reflexes and mild gross motor delay in infancy, followed by intractable focal seizures with language regression, behavioural abnormalities (hyperactivity, attention deficit, aggressive/autoaggressive behaviour, autistic features) and intellectual disability later in life. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic epilepsy syndrome characterised by infantile or childhood onset of focal motor seizures remitting with age, as well as childhood onset of exercise-induced dystonia which often persists into adulthood. Additional reported features include nystagmus and postural tremor of the hands. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic eye disease characterised by abnormal proliferation of retinal tissue resulting in the formation of retinal folds, thereby causing gliosis and, clinically, variable degrees of visual impairment. No clinical findings other than those associated with the eyes have been demonstrated. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic eye disease characterised by congenital cataract, microcornea, and corneal opacity, resulting in severe visual impairment or blindness. Depending on the genetic background, other developmental ocular defects may also be present. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic eye disease characterised by congenital profound excavation of the optic nerve head with diminished visual field, in the absence of elevated intraocular pressure. Many patients lack a well-formed retinal artery and have multiple radial cilioretinal arteries instead. The condition is mostly bilateral, may worsen progressively, and is often complicated by serous macular detachment with profound visual loss. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic eye disease characterised by microcornea, coloboma of the iris and the optic disc, axial enlargement of the globe, staphyloma, and severe myopia. Additional manifestations are mild cornea plana, iridocorneal angle abnormalities with elevation of intraocular pressure, and shallow anterior chamber depth. Variable expressivity of the phenotype has been described, including unilateral or bilateral involvement, or variable extent of coloboma, among other features. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic eye disease characterised by optic disc anomalies (bilateral colobomatous optic discs, retinal vessels arising from the peripheral optic disc) and macular atrophy. Peripapillary chorioretinal atrophy and chorioretinal and iris coloboma have also been described. Patients present with horizontal nystagmus and poor visual acuity. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic female infertility characterised by oocyte maturation arrest during any of the various stages of meiosis I or II. In some patients, first polar body oocytes may be retrieved, but these either show fertilisation failure or early embryonic arrest. Affected women have regular menstrual cycles. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic gastroenterological disease characterised by infantile or childhood onset of severe gastrointestinal inflammation. Patients present with a variable phenotype including fever, diarrhoea, failure to thrive, oral ulcers, fistulating perianal disease, strictures, granulomatous colitis, and recurrent bacterial and viral infections. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic gastroenterological disease characterised by severe, refractory intestinal inflammation with mucosal erosions and ulcerations potentially involving the small and large intestine. Epithelioid granulomas are typically absent. Patients present with severe diarrhoea, abdominal pain, vomiting, rectal bleeding, and weight loss. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic gastroenterological disease characterised by the presence of multiple persistent, intractable ulcers of the small intestine, leading to chronic blood and protein loss. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, anaemia, fatigue, oedema, and diarrhoea. Morphologically, the condition manifests with multiple sharply demarcated shallow lesions with irregular circular or linear shape. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic haematologic and intestinal disease characterised by childhood onset of bleeding tendency with epistaxis, gum bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding, haematuria, and menorrhagia due to impaired platelet aggregation and secretion, as well as recurrent gastrointestinal ulcer. Mildly reduced levels of coagulation factor XI have been reported in addition. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic haematologic disease characterised by decreased or undetectable serum L-ferritin with otherwise normal laboratory parameters. Clinical signs and symptoms include generalised seizures, atypical restless leg syndrome, mild neuropsychologic impairment, and progressive hair loss. Asymptomatic cases have also been reported. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
A rare genetic haematologic disease characterised by mild chronic haemolytic anaemia (due to highly elevated adenosine deaminase activity in red blood cells resulting in their premature destruction), elevated reticulocyte count, splenomegaly and mild hyperbilirubinaemia. Other cells and tissues are not affected. Preferred (foundation metadata concept)
