Beals syndrome is caused by a mutation in a gene that helps build connective tissue called fibrillin-2. It is closely related to the gene (fibrillin-1) that causes Marfan syndrome. Beals syndrome is also known as congenital contractural arachnoldactyly (CCA), which refers to the joint contractures (shortening) that are key features of the syndrome.
