This review analyzes the oculoauriculovertebral spectrum, detailing its nosology, epidemiology, and causes. It covers clinical features, central nervous system involvement, and associated anomalies, aiding in differential diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Genetics
  • Developmental Biology
  • Clinical Medicine

Background:

  • The oculoauriculovertebral spectrum (OAVS) presents complex diagnostic challenges.
  • Understanding its diverse manifestations and genetic underpinnings is crucial for patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive review and critical analysis of the oculoauriculovertebral spectrum.
  • To update knowledge on its nosology, epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, and clinical features.
  • To clarify its relationship with overlapping and related conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and critical analysis of existing studies on OAVS.
  • Synthesis of information regarding genetic factors, pathogenesis, and clinical presentations.
  • Comparison with differential diagnoses and related syndromes.

Main Results:

  • Detailed discussion of nosologic issues, epidemiology, and diverse etiologies (chromosomal, monogenic, teratogenic).
  • Updated review of clinical manifestations including craniofacial, central nervous system (expanded Goldenhar complex), cardiac, and other organ system anomalies.
  • Exploration of overlapping conditions such as frontonasal dysplasia, BOR syndrome, and VATER/CHARGE associations.

Conclusions:

  • OAVS is a complex spectrum with varied etiology and manifestations.
  • Accurate diagnosis requires careful consideration of differential diagnoses and related conditions.
  • Further research is needed to fully elucidate pathogenesis and improve management strategies.
