-
A rare genetic vascular disease with characteristics of congenital dysfunction of smooth muscle throughout the body, manifesting with cerebrovascular disease, aortic anomalies, intestinal hypoperistalsis, hypotonic bladder and pulmonary hypertension. Congenital mid-dilated pupils non-reactive to light associated with a large, persistent patent ductus arteriosus are characteristic hallmarks of the disease. There is evidence the disease is caused by heterozygous mutation in the ACTA2 gene on chromosome 10q23.
