OMIM : ⁵⁷ Lateral meningocele syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by distinctive facial features, hyperextensibility, hypotonia, and characteristic lateral meningoceles, which can result in neurologic complications such as bladder dysfunction and neuropathy. Dysmorphic features include dolichocephaly, hypertelorism, ptosis, microretrognathia, high-arched palate, long, flat philtrum, and low-set ears. Multiple additional variable features may also be observed, including cryptorchidism, vertebral anomalies, and connective tissue abnormalities. Early motor development is delayed, but cognition is usually normal (summary by Gripp et al., 2015). (130720)

MalaCards based summary : Lateral Meningocele Syndrome, also known as lehman syndrome, is related to limb-mammary syndrome and leiomyosarcoma. An important gene associated with Lateral Meningocele Syndrome is NOTCH3 (Notch 3), and among its related pathways/superpathways is Notch signaling pathway. Affiliated tissues include bone, spinal cord and skin, and related phenotypes are malar flattening and hypertelorism

Genetics Home Reference : ²⁵ Lateral meningocele syndrome is a disorder that affects the nervous system, the bones and muscles, and other body systems. The condition is characterized by abnormalities known as lateral meningoceles. Lateral meningoceles are protrusions of the membranes surrounding the spinal cord (known as the meninges) through gaps in the bones of the spine (vertebrae). The protrusions are most common and typically larger in the lower spine.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : ⁷⁵ Lateral meningocele syndrome: A very rare skeletal disorder with facial anomalies, hypotonia and neurologic dysfunction due to meningocele, a protrusion of the meninges, unaccompanied by neural tissue, through a bony defect in the skull or vertebral column. LMNS facial features include hypertelorism and telecanthus, high arched eyebrows, ptosis, mid-facial hypoplasia, micrognathia, high and narrow palate, low-set ears and a hypotonic appearance. Additional variable features are connective tissue abnormalities, aortic dilation, a high-pitched nasal voice, wormian bones and osteolysis.
