 What are the symptoms of Schwartz Jampel syndrome type 1 ? 
 What are the signs and symptoms of Schwartz Jampel syndrome type 1? Individuals with Schwartz-Jampel syndrome type 1 (SJS1) have characteristic facial features, muscle weakness (hypotonia), and muscle stiffness (myotonia). Facial features of individuals with SJS1 can seem "fixed" in the same expression with puckered lips due to weakening and stiffening of the facial muscles. Additional facial features may include:   Blepharophimosis (narrowing of the eye opening) Epicanthal folds (skin fold of the upper eyelid covering the inner corner of the eye) Blepharospasm (involuntary blinking or spasm of the eyelids) Hypertrichosis (excessive hair) of the eye lashes         Micrognathia (small lower jaw) Individuals with SJS1 usually have short stature. Other skeletal and joint findings may include: Shortened neck Pectus carinatum (outward bowing of the chest) Kyphosis (curving of the spine that causes a bowing or rounding of the back) Coxa valga (hip deformity involving an increased neck-shaft angle of the femur) Joint contractures  Osteoporosis Widening of the metaphysis (portion of the bone containing the growth plate) Delayed bone age Other less common symptoms include: a high pitched voice, bilateral carpel tunnel syndrome, and malignant hyperthermia. One study suggested that as many as 20% of individuals with SJS1 have an intellectual disability; however, most individuals with SJS1 have normal intelligence. The Human Phenotype Ontology provides the following list of signs and symptoms for Schwartz Jampel syndrome type 1. If the information is available, the table below includes how often the symptom is seen in people with this condition. You can use the MedlinePlus Medical Dictionary to look up the definitions for these medical terms.

Much of this information comes from Orphanet, a European rare disease database. The frequency of a sign or symptom is usually listed as a rough estimate of the percentage of patients who have that feature. The frequency may also be listed as a fraction. The first number of the fraction is how many people had the symptom, and the second number is the total number of people who were examined in one study. For example, a frequency of 25/25 means that in a study of 25 people all patients were found to have that symptom. Because these frequencies are based on a specific study, the fractions may be different if another group of patients are examined. Sometimes, no information on frequency is available. In these cases, the sign or symptom may be rare or common.
