Mulibrey nanism (MUscle-LIver-BRain-EYe nanism) also called Perheentupa syndrome and pericardial constriction with growth failure is a rare autosomal recessive congenital disorder. It causes severe growth failure (dwarfism) along with abnormalities of the heart muscle liver brain and eye. Mulibrey nanism has been associated with a recessive defect in the gene TRIM37. TRIM37 is responsible for various cellular functions including developmental patterning.
