2. FLNB in Skeletal Diseases Mutations in FLNB lead to various skeletal malformations‚ involving long bone‚ joints and vertebra. There were five FLNB-related skeletal disorders been reported so far‚ including spondylocarpotarsal synostosis (SCT)‚ Larsen syndrome‚ atelosteogenesis (AO)‚ boomerang dysplasia‚ and isolated congenital talipes equinovarus. (1) Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome (SCT‚ OMIM 272460) Spondylocarpotarsal synostosis syndrome was characterized by the following features:
