In two unrelated girls, each with severe mental deficiency and craniofacial dysmorphism, deletion of chromosome segment 1q4 had occurred de novo. These two observations together with seven others from the literature allow delineation of a syndrome, as follows. Growth retardation is marked at birth

We present 2 sibs with manifestations of oral-facial-digital syndromes (OFD) and Joubert syndrome. The index patient was the 5th child of healthy nonconsanguineous Turkish parents. At birth this female patient had large hydrocephalus, hypertelorism, deep-set eyes, nystagmus, broad mouth, thick oral

Acrocallosal syndrome (ACS) is a rare, genetically transmitted disorder characterized by facial deformities. These include a large forehead, large anterior fontanelle, broad nasal bridge with increased intercanthal distance, partial or complete agenesis of the corpus callosum, polysyndactyly,

We report on 2 sibs with severe microcephaly and unusual associated manifestations. The brother has borderline/normal intelligence, episodic seizures, clumsiness, and the more severe of facial manifestations; the sister has normal IQ and neither seizures nor behavior abnormalities. Small ears,

Toriello Carey syndrome is a rare recessive autosomal disease whose clinical manifestations are more evident in males. Some authors report that the general characteristics of this disease are agenesis of the corpus callosum, mental disability, convulsions, atrial septal defect, pulmonary artery

Observation of a patient with r(14) mosaicism together along with 18 previously published observations define the syndrome as follows: mental deficiency, seizures, microcephaly (usually), and facial dysmorphism showing a narrow, elongated face, short palpebral fissures, a flat nasal bridge, and

The surgical management of children with tracheal stenosis and obstruction is complicated by the perioperative needs of pressure ventilation and indwelling endotracheal tubes. These factors predispose to surgical failure and anastomotic breakdown, restenosis. and pneumomediastinum. The use of

We report on 8 patients from two families with Alpers syndrome. The onset in one family was prenatal and in the 4 patients who were examined, severe microcephaly, intrauterine growth retardation, and typical manifestations of fetal akinesia, including retrognathia, joint limitations, and chest

A 5-month-old male infant presented with weak cry, decreased body movements, tightness of whole body since birth, and one episode of generalized seizure on day 4 of life. He was born at term by elective caesarian section performed for breech presentation. The child had failure to thrive,

Clinical characteristics: THOC6 intellectual disability syndrome is associated with moderate-to-severe developmental delay or intellectual disability; nonspecific dysmorphic facial features (tall forehead, deep-set eyes, short and

We report on the clinical and molecular findings of a patient who presented alopecia, epicanthus, micrognathia, retrognathia, high arched palate, hypertelorism, Chiari type I malformation, mixed-type hearing loss but with normal heartbeat Q-T interval, malformed earlobes, down-slanted palpebral

Mutations in SPATA5 have recently been shown to result in a phenotype of microcephaly, intellectual disability, seizures, and hearing loss in childhood. Our aim in this report is to delineate the SPATA5 syndrome as a clinical entity, including the facial appearance, neurophysiological, and

Interstitial deletions in the short arm of chromosome 1 are infrequent. We report a female with a 1p31.1p31.3 deletion and cloverleaf skull, who presented with renal and central nervous system malformations, cleft palate, severe ocular anomalies, and cutis laxa, in addition to the previously
