description: An autosomal dominant condition usually caused by mutation(s) in the SHH gene, encoding sonic hedgehog, a secreted protein involved in the organization and morphology of the developing embryo. This condition is characterized by multiple, mainly midline, developmental variations, including the presence of a tooth in the center of the maxillary dental arch in both primary and permanent dentition, and any combination of the following: holoprosencephaly, congenital nasal malformation (choanal atresia, midnasal stenosis, or congenital pyriform aperture stenosis), cleft lip and/or palate, hypopituitarism (including hypothyroidism and hypogonadism, resulting in variations in genital development including small penis or incomplete masculinization in male infants), congenital heart anomalies, and developmental delay.
