Presentation
It is important to note that exceptions may also occur, where individuals with small amount of chromosomal gains, may have disproportionately severe presentations. [dovemed.com]
The patient was followed from 1 month old to 3 years and 8 months of age and presented typical features of the 16p13.3 duplication syndrome. In addition, the patient presents a portal cavernoma, an alteration rarely reported in this condition. [bv.fapesp.br]
The present report describes the genotypic and phenotypic delineation of nine submicroscopic interstitial 16p13.3 duplications. [eurekamag.com]
His phenotype is thus quite different from other cases present in the literature. [docksci.com]

Prognosis
What is the Prognosis of Chromosome 16p13.3 Duplication Syndrome? (Outcomes/Resolutions) The prognosis of Chromosome 16p13.3 Duplication Syndrome is dependent upon the severity of the signs and symptoms and associated complications, if any. [dovemed.com]
Etiology
Developmental delay occurs in 1% to 3% of the population, with unknown etiology in approximately 50% of cases. [docksci.com]
(Etiology) Chromosome 16p13.3 Duplication Syndrome is caused by the presence of extra genetic material on chromosome 16 at a location designated p13.3. This occurs as a result of duplication of genetic material at this locus. [dovemed.com]
Prevention
How can Chromosome 16p13.3 Duplication Syndrome be Prevented? Chromosome 16p13.3 Duplication Syndrome may not be preventable since many of these genetic disorders are diagnosed at or following the birth of the child. [dovemed.com]
