OMIM 601706 | ||
The genetic disorder Yemenite deaf-blind hypopigmentation syndrome, also known as Warburg-Thomsen syndrome, is a condition caused by a mutation on the SRY-related HMG-box gene 10 (not SOX10).
It was characterized in 1990, after being seen in two siblings from Yemen who presented with a "hitherto undescribed association of microcornea, colobomata of the iris and choroidea, nystagmus, severe early hearing loss, and patchy hypo- and hyperpigmentation." Some sources affirm SOX10 involvement.
