Table 1.

Clinical and skeletal phenotype of c.302G>A p.(Arg101His) recurrent MMP2 gene variant identified in patient 1 of this study and previously reported literature.

Author (year) Patients N (sex) Age at presentation (AOO) years Cranio-facial Subcutaneous nodules MPJ, PIPJ, DIPJ Wrist Foot/ankle Proximal/large joints, spine Radiography Other systems
Martignetti et al. (2001) 3 (1 family, 2 M, 1 F) 12 (5)
19 (6)
10 (6)
Frontal bossing, hypertelorism, but no coarse facial features Mobile, non-tender, hard, smooth surfaced plantar nodules MPJ, PIPJ in the form of hand clawing Involved Involved Elbowsa, knees, shoulders Diffuse osteopenia, subcortical erosions, medullary expansion, arthritis/deformity of carpus, wrist IPJ(s) MPJ(s) and feet. Pathologic fractures of right humerus and femur (one patient) None
Zankl et al. (2007) 1 (F) 13.5 years (8 mos) Coarse facial features and flat nasal bridge Painless plantar nodules All involving (arthritis/fusion) Involved Toes (hyperextension) and ankle stiffness, the right foot showed arthritis/joint erosions of IPJ of big toeb, hallux valgus and marked varus (inversion) deformity. Knees, elbows, sacroiliac joints Diffuse osteopeniac, subcortical erosions, medullary expansion, arthritis of carpus, wrist. IPJ(s) and some MPJ(s), fusion of thumb IPJ and patella-femoral joint, striated distal femoral and proximal femur metaphyses. Non-united pathologic fracture proximal phalanx of index of left hand and of undisplaced (greenstick) fractures of bases of metacarpals of right hand. The distal ends of the metacarpals were broad in the right and tapering in the left hand (at same point in time). High arched palate and epicanthal folds
Bhavani et al. (2016) 1 (F) 9 years (by birth) Coarse facial features and bullous nose Plantar nodules MPJ, and PIPJ of the right hand especially little finger Involved Bilateral hallux valgus especially the right foot and hyperextension of the greater toe of left foot. Mild clawing of lesser toes bilaterally None Diffuse osteoporosis, subcortical erosions, medullary expansion of metacarpals, metatarsals and to lesser extent the phalanges. Mild carpotarsal osteolysis. Generally, hands more affected than feet Hirsutism
Patient 1 of this study 1 (M) 6.5 years (2 years) Prominent forehead, hypertelorism, a depressed nasal bridge, long philtrum, large ears, thick protruding lower lip, but no coarse facial features None MPJ and PIPJ (deformity, no arthritis) Involved Greater toes, extension deformity and right hallux valgus None clinically (radiography not done) Hands show diffuse osteopenia, bilateral carpal osteolysis more pronounced on the right, minute pathologic fractures of metacarpals and feet (with osteopenia and midtarsal osteolysis), tapering of the proximal ends of metacarpals and transverse metaphyseal striations. Dentition problems, asymptomatic, mild congenital cardiac defect

Zankl et al. (2007), patient had a compound heterozygote for two mutations in the MMP2 gene; NR, not reported; AOO, age of onset; MPJ, metacarpophalangeal joint; PIPJ, proximal interphalangeal joint; DIPJ, distal interphalangeal joint; IPJ, interphalangeal joint.

a

The article reported proximal joint involvement collectively in a case series with various mutations. We were unable to associate this involvement with our target mutation/patients.

b

Radiographs of the right foot were well-described while those of the left were neither shown nor detailed in the text.

c

Striations of femoral and tibial metaphyses and phalanx non-union are most likely secondary to alendronate therapy (a subtype of bisphosphonate) and not necessary disease-specific. The same applies to the striations found in patient 1 of this study.
