General Conversation
IRF6-related disorders include a range of conditions dued to irregularities in the interferon regulatory aspect 6 (IRF6) genetics. Van der Woude disorder (VWS) is at the mild end of the spectrum and also popliteal pterygium disorder (PPS) goes to the extreme end of the range. People with VWS could have lip pits alone, cleft lip or cleft taste buds alone, or a combo of these abnormalities.

The physical functions connected with PPS consist of cleft lip and/or cleft taste, reduced lip pits, webbed skin (pterygium) on the backs of both legs (popliteal) as well as in between the legs (intercrural), malformation and/or underdevelopment of the genitals, webbing or combination of the fingers and/or toes (syndactyly), bond of top as well as reduced mandible (intraoral bonds), as well as bond of top and also reduced eyelids (ankyloblepharon). A cone-shaped layer of skin on the nail of the huge toe is a quite distinct finding in this condition.
