19.1 Introduction
A deeper understanding of craniofacial diseases is based on the increased knowledge in disease biol­ogy and genetics. Advanced technologies in chro­mosomal and genetic analysis as well as the recent possibilities in bioinformatics and multi- omics data help to get a deeper insight in genotype­phenotype relation. In the past decade, efforts to classify diseases were based on molecular insights increased with studies related to molecular-based disease subtyping in different disease conditions [1]. The sheer volume of data collected in analys­ing genetics and in documentation of phenotypes from 3D scans and omics data generates massive and complex data sets. The size and heterogeneity of such data sets do not only pose new challenges

to efciently and effectively store data but are also challenging to develop new algorithms to gain insight into the cause-and-effect correlations between genetics, embryological pathogenetics and disease extent (phenotypic outcome).
19.1.1 Technical Approaches
Today, genetics play an important role in medical practice. With the knowledge of genetics, it is pos­sible to provide the nal precise diagnosis to many different diseases. Understanding the reason of the disease helps to make it tangible, generate a better treatment plan, and maybe even a cure. Technically, the human genome can be determined on various levels, starting at a chromosomal level up to changes in the base sequence. Many genetic dis­eases appear phenotypically different and dening the underlying cause in the DNA for each disease was often complicated in the past. However, genetic measures were profoundly inspired by Paul Berg [2], Frederick Sanger [3], and Walter Gilbert [4] as they introduced DNA sequencing. Further studies led to Sanger’s “chain-termina­tion” sequencing technology [5] and later to detecting the human genome [6]. In the last two decades, two new techniques of measurement were introduced, that are important in today’s genetics. DNA microarrays can genotype millions of specic positions in each human genome, while “next-generation sequencing” (NGS) can even generate billions of sequences in a few hours.

Approximately half the cases with suspected syndromic diagnosis no underlying cause can be detected despite the use of exome sequence and genome sequence.Both techniques present limi­tations: structural modications, methylation processes, repeats and mosaics may be partly or fully detectable. In addition, non-coding sec­tions can hardly be interpreted.
The knowledge of clinically driven genetics and their inherent limitations in paediatrics is therefore important for the evaluation of cranio­facial disorders. This rapid development of molecular diagnostics helps practitioners and patients nowadays to get a deeper insight into the diagnostic approach towards craniofacial disor­ders. In order to gain insight into the genetic­disorder relationship, it is on one hand important to know the denition of subsets of craniofacial anomalies and on the other hand to be aware of technical approaches in genetic testing.
19.1.2 Denition
19.1.2.1 Syndromes andSequences
A syndrome is dened by a set of symptoms and is correlated independently. It etymologically means ‘concurrence’ and consequently means medical signs that appear together. A clinical example might be Treacher Collins syndrome. Infants with Treacher Collins present with hypo­plasia of the viscerocranium, cleft palate, malfor­mation of the ears, pharyngeal hypoplasia and several other symptoms [7].
A sequence needs to be differentiated from this as it shows a set of symptoms that depend on one primary defect affecting other structures consecutively. A clinical example might be Pierre Robin sequence (PRS). Patients with PRS pres­ent with the triad of micrognathia, glossoptosis and resulting airway obstruction. Pierre Robin himself declared the drop of the base of the tongue as a disturbance of the nasopharyngeal airway [8]. The sequence is also often accompa­nied by cleft palates. It is commonly assumed that the micrognathia causes a dislocation of the tongue to an upper and posterior direction medi­ally between the two parts of the developing pal-
ates during pregnancy. This irregular development results in a U-shaped cleft [9].
19.1.2.2 Pathogenesis ofAnomalies
In general, anomalies mean the departure of a common phenotype. There are four underlying mechanisms of pathogenesis that lead to struc­tural craniofacial anomalies (Fig.19.1) [10]:
(i). Deformations. (ii). Malformations. (iii). Disruptions. (iv). Dysplasias.
Deformations
Deformation means that a part of the head or face has a different shape or position because of dis­torting mechanical inuence (e.g. turricephaly). This may cause a loss of symmetry or abnormal position [11].
Malformations
Malformation is dened as an alteration of the primary developmental program (e.g. pharyngeal arch) that leads to a congenital morphological anomaly. This may cause further structural or physiological failures [12].

Disruptions
Disruption is a breakdown of a normal, healthy body structure that leads to a congenital morpho­logical anomaly.
Dysplasias
Dysplasia means abnormal tissue architecture (e.g. skeletal dysplasias) [13].
19.2 Genomic Testing
Prenatal tests like the early preimplantation genetic diagnosis or amniocentesis give informa­tion about the presence of genetic diseases in an early state of pregnancy [14]. However, many pregnant women decide to non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) that analyses small pieces of embryonic genome to detect chromosomal aber­rations including trisomy 21, 13 and 18 [15]. Furthermore, it is postnatally also possible to screen for germ line mutations by tests based on blood or saliva samples. Nowadays, many differ-
ent biological materials can be used to test for genetically caused anomalies. Examination material, more precisely genomic DNA, can be extracted from lymphocytes or broblasts post­natally and from chorionic villi prenatally.
There are many different kinds of genomic testing. However, new genomic testing tech­niques have not replaced older ones but have expanded traditional diagnostic possibilities. Figure 19.2 provides an overview chart on genomic testing methods.
19.2.1 Cytogenetics
Cytogenetics mean the science of chromosomes, their number and structure.
19.2.1.1 Chromosomal Analysis
The chromosomal analysis evaluates chromo­somes by light microscopy. Karyotype gives information about the number and structure of chromosomes. A karyogram shows the size,

shape and banding of an individual by the use of cytogenetic technique. This analysis with limited resolution was the rst technique to reveal the genome (Fig.19.3).
The classical cytogenetic technique is able to detect chromosomal aberrations, including numerical and structural changes. Nondisjunctions, incorrect distributions and structural aberrations can be displayed. Numerical changes can be due to nondisjunction, which means the missing sepa­ration of homologous chromosomes during meio­sis I and of the sister chromatids during meiosis II or mitosis. Risk factors include increased mater-
nal age as well as ionizing radiation. Incorrect dis­tribution might affect gonosomes (e.g. Turner syndrome, monosomy 45,X0; Fig.19.4) or auto­somes (e.g. Down syndrome, trisomy 21; Fig.19.5).
0.5% of all infants show chromosomal aber­rations, and more than half of spontaneous aborts are caused by numerical chromosomal aberra­tions [16]. Somatic chromosomal aberrations also play an important role in tumorigenesis as it is in detail investigated in translocation t(9;22), also known as the Philadelphia chromosome, that leads to chronic myeloid leukaemia [17].

19.2.1.2 Fluorescence inSitu Hybridization (FISH)
Further developments lead to uorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in the late 1980 that pro-
high resolution but is limited to single chromo­somal sections and therefore cannot provide
genome-wide examination. vides deeper insights and more detailed examina­tion of the individual chromosome. FISH combines cytogenetic and molecular genetic approaches and offers the opportunity to display chromosomes and chromosomal sections in colour by uorescence microscopy. Fluorescently labelled DNA probes join single-stranded DNA (hybridization) directly on the patient’s sample (in situ). With this technique, diagnosticians are able to detect specic chromosomal sections and reveal microdeletions that could not be recog­nized by classical chromosomal analysis [18].
19.2.1.3 DNA Microarray
Today, DNA microarrays combine the advan-
tages of both the chromosomal analysis and
FISH.DNA microarrays are able to examine the
whole genome on many areas of the genome at
once with a resolution of a few thousand nucleo-
tides. Hereby, unbalanced chromosomal changes,
including small copy number variants, can be
detected. This reveals all numerous and unbal-
anced structural chromosomal aberrations, such
as microdeletion syndromes (Fig.19.6).

Modern SNP arrays are also able to give quan­titative information about copy numbers [19]. Copy number variation means structural differ­ences of the genome due to a gain (duplication) or loss (deletion) of chromosomal material. In conclusion, the number of gene copies in a sam­ple differs to the number in a reference genome. Duplications and deletions can affect the pheno­type of a patient in a highly wide range depend­ing, among others, on the length of the DNA section and its gene content [20]. Modern SNP arrays are also able to detect uniparental disomy, which means that both homologous chromo­somes originate from the same parent. DNA microarrays are not able to detect balanced chro­mosomal aberrations, including balanced translocations.

The diagnostic yield of a karyotype or DNA microarray analysis used to screen individuals with craniofacial malformations varies by type and category. For example, in some studies, the diagnostic yield for isolated nonsyndromic single- suture craniosynostosis cases is very low or near zero. Yet in syndromic craniosynostosis, the yield ranges from 6.7% to 28%. The vast majority (85%) of craniosynostosis due to chro­mosomal aberrations affects the midline (metopic and sagittal) sutures. Karyotype and DNA micro­array studies in individuals with oral clefts also have varying degrees of diagnostic yield depend­ing on whether the clefts were detected prena­tally or postnatally. Maarse etal. summarized a comprehensive review of prenatal and postnatal chromosomal and microarray studies [21]. Of 407 foetuses with oral clefts, cleft lip and palate had the highest prevalence of associated anoma­lies (54%, range 39.1–66%). There were 23 cases of cleft lip without cleft palate, and three of these had associated anomalies, while only one had a chromosomal defect. Studies that grouped both cleft lip and cleft palate had a lower prevalence of associated anomalies (29.9%, range 17.2–
57.1%). The prevalence of chromosomal defects in cleft cases with associated anomalies was 50% (74/146), while it was 0.9% in cases with clefts that were formerly presumed to be isolated. Of 28,953 postnatally assessed infants, almost all chromosomal abnormalities were found in asso­ciation with additional anomalies. Cleft palate was the category most frequently associated with other anomalies (45.9%, range 22.2–78.3%). The prevalence of associated anomalies in cleft lip cases was approximately 10%. One study of iso­lated cleft lip cases found a chromosomal defect in 1.8% (2/110) of cases (both having a 22q11.2 deletion). Overall, the diagnostic yield of screen­ing for chromosomal defects in cases of cleft lip with or without cleft palate was 9.5% (range 0.5–
12.6%) [21].
information in extracted RNA or DNA.Molecular genetics made giant leaps due to the development of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and is increasingly expanding classical analyses.
19.2.2.1 Southern Blot Analysis
Southern blot analysis provides information about the length of a specic DNA section. Specic restriction enzymes cut the genomic DNA into pieces that will be separated electro­phoretically afterwards. After transferring onto a nylon membrane (blotting), the technique is able to detect restriction fragment length polymor­phism (RFLP) (Fig.19.7).
The approach used to be very effective in detection of point mutations before PCR was established but is still the method of choice in detection of massive repeat expansions occurring in trinucleotide diseases.
19.2.2.2 Sanger Sequencing
Sanger sequencing is the gold standard and detects mutations reliably. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is able to amplify small DNA sec­tions that can then be sequenced. The technique determines the sequence of nucleic acids (order of nucleotides in DNA) (Fig.19.8).
Most recognizable craniofacial syndromes are monogenic Mendelian disorders, but even within the same condition, there is often allelic hetero­geneity with most individuals having different mutations in the same gene. One exception to this are the recognizable craniosynostosis syndromes involving the FGFR genes (FGFR1, FGFR2,

FGFR3). In craniofacial medicine, there are a growing number of clinically indistinguishable or overlapping phenotypes that may be caused by mutations in different genes (locus heterogene­ity). Examples include rasopathies, cohesinopa­thies, mandibulofacial dysostoses and Stickler syndrome [19]. When using a major malforma­tion as the only search criterion, the number of genes involved can range from just a few to more than a hundred. For many genetically heteroge­neous craniofacial disorders, the full complement of causal genes is yet to be established.

ping phenotype with autosomal dominant (COL2A1, COL11A1, COL11A2, VCAN) and autosomal recessive inheritance (COL9A1, COL9A2, COL9A3, LOXL3) [25].
As of today, Sanger sequencing remains the gold standard molecular diagnostic tool used to screen DNA for unknown point mutations in dened genes; this may change as the condence and quality of newer technologies improve. Up until recently, some larger genes had remained inaccessible to clinical testing because the older methods were too burdensome on laboratory staff, or the condition was too rare for a test to be commercially viable.

sequencing of millions of DNA sections in a sin­gle sequencing run. This results in the theoretical opportunity to detect nearly all genetic altera­tions (like minor insertions or major transloca­tions and even aneuploidy) by a single test. The use of this next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to interrogate the exome sequence (ES) or genome sequence (GS) may circumvent some of the difculties of older technologies.
Today, this technique is work and cost inten­sive. Since the importance of introns is still not claried, the sole sequencing of exomes as the protein coding area of the genome represents a good alternative. However, in 2010, next­generation sequencing was used to reveal the underlying gene for the Miller syndrome, a pathology with micrognathia, cleft lip and palate and other anomalies [22].
19.3 Management
Determining genetic causality for a particular disease and establishing a molecular diagnosis in clinical practice can be challenging. In recent years, exome and genome sequencing have increased the rate of gene discovery for single­gene disorders among patients with suspected, but previously undiagnosed, genetic disorders. Although exome and genome sequencing are becoming more readily available, the value of molecular diagnosis should be viewed from a clinical perspective as similar to other diagnostic tests. The decision to proceed with molecular testing must integrate many factors specic to clinical status of the affected individual, such as probability of diagnostic yield and the patient’s/ family’s personal preference.
19.3.1 Clinical Evaluation
To evaluate craniofacial disorders, it is obligatory to get detailed information about risk factors. First of all, potential prenatal exposures have to be retrieved and checked on their teratogenic potential [23]. Among other things, this is impor­tant to calm parents who are afraid of exposures
of drugs that are not teratogenic. Other common risk factors for malformations are maternal dis­eases like diabetes or alcoholism. Furthermore, a pedigree analysis can reveal genetic diseases due to its penetrance, anticipation and expressivity. Besides the genetic diagnosis, standard paediat­ric assessments like growth measurements should be mentioned. The results of this analysis lead to differential diagnoses.
Besides this standard examination, experi­enced practitioners are able to detect common syndromes or sequences based on typical pat­terns of morphological anomalies [ orphan diseases or minor variants of certain dis­orders might remain unrecognized. In these cases, molecular diagnostics offer a powerful instrument to detect the underlying cause of cra­niofacial disorders.
24]. However,
19.3.1.1 Genetic Test
Molecular genetic tests are of increasing impor­tance in all medical professions. However, there is a great discrepancy between technical abili­ties and sensible use of these instruments. The practitioner has to evaluate the right diagnostic methods in order to gain the best information and to cause least costs. Detection of an under­lying pathogenic DNA variant is only one aspect in the diagnosis of craniofacial disorders. The clinical question arises which information will be gathered after testing, how this information will help the patient and how will it affect the patient.
19.3.1.2 Future Directions
Large- scale studies are needed and are recently on the way to identify the complex correlations between genetic inuences, embryological devel­opment and the resulting phenotype. This is espe­cially important for seldom diseases like craniofacial malformations. One way to improve in future the approach to gain a deeper insight into disease biology of rare diseases is to inte­grate genetic and molecular data as well as phe­notypic appearances into a broad network of craniofacial data. A specic ontology—the Ontology of Craniofacial Development and Malformation (OCDM)—was developed years
