In a minority of cases minor lateral ventriculomegaly (6-20% of cases) and corpus callosal dysgenesis (6-10% of cases) is also present 5,9. [radiopaedia.org]

Notably, endocrine abnormalities including those observed in the present case have never been reported in KIF7-associated phenotypes (Table 2). [bmcpediatr.biomedcentral.com]

How does the condition present and progress? Children with Joubert’s syndrome can have very variable features and problems, from relatively mild to very severe. [gosh.nhs.uk]

Joubert syndrome with hepatic disease is characterized by progressive hepatic fibrosis already presenting at birth. [centogene.com]

• Sparse Hair

  Craniofacial dysmorphism (sparse hair, hypertelorism, thick eyebrow, bilateral ptosis, short columella, low-set ears, and signs of cleft lip and palate correction by surgery), flat-overpronated feet with bilateral calcaneovalgus deformity, and severe [bmcpediatr.biomedcentral.com]

Is there any treatment? There is no treatment that can cure the underlying brain malformation and the resulting effects on the rest of the body. [gosh.nhs.uk]

Treatment and prognosis There is limited data available on the long-term outcome of children with Joubert syndrome. Persistent neuromotor developmental retardation is a feature of surviving individuals. [radiopaedia.org]

Endocrine re-evaluation at 2 years, documented normal levels of fT4, TSH, ACTH, and cortisol; IGF1 levels were 92 ng/ml (under GH treatment). [bmcpediatr.biomedcentral.com]

Treatment of Joubert syndrome-affected patients is primarily symptomatic. Infants and children with abnormal breathing may require supplemental oxygen and mechanical support. [centogene.com]

Patients with associated retinal dysplasia appear to have a poorer prognosis 5. [radiopaedia.org]

Because JS has different phenotypic subtypes that affect different organs, prognosis and mortality in JS is largely dependent on the severity of the organs affected. [eyewiki.aao.org]

This indicates that the prognosis between JBTS and DWV is greatly different. Therefore, a definitive diagnosis between JBTS and DWV is critical for patient’s management, disease prediction, and genetic counseling. [hindawi.com]

The prognosis is dependent on the type and extent of organ involvement. [cureus.com]

Molecular genetic analysis along with imaging findings may be a good choice to help the early prenatal diagnosis and uncover the potential genetic etiology. [hindawi.com]

Etiology First described by Marie Joubert in 1969 (Joubert, 1969)[1], JS now is known to have multiple genetic causes and subtypes, all of which affect the structure and/or function of primary cilia. [eyewiki.aao.org]
