Abstract
Hyaline fibromatosis syndrome is an extremely rare autosomal recessive condition caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the ANTXR2 gene that leads to abnormal growth of hyalinized fibrous tissue. Severity ranges from life-threatening intractable diarrhea, recurrent infection, and acute pain to milder disease resulting in skin lesions and less severe contractures. Here, we report the case of a 3-month-old female who presented with joint contractures and severe pain followed by failure to thrive. Diagnosis via ultra-rapid whole genome sequencing allowed our team to provide appropriate care and anticipatory guidance for this patient and family.
