• Short Stature

  Short stature is common, as are various hearing and vision problems. Behavioral problems can occur, sometimes causing patients to exhibit autistic-like behaviors. [en.wikibooks.org]

  Characteristic clinical features include short stature, mental retardation, hypotonia, facial and distal skeletal abnormalities. The presence of the syndrome is usually evident at or soon after birth. [radiopaedia.org]

  Short stature and poor growth are common features of individuals with 18q deletions. GH deficiency is common in this cohort of patients and probably plays a role in the short stature seen in many of the affected individuals. [academic.oup.com]

  The might also have seizures, low muscle tone (hypotonia), speech and language delays, obesity, and short stature. Chromosome testing of both parents can provide more information on whether or not the deletion was inherited. [malacards.org]

  The main clinical features are short stature, round face with short philtrum, palpebral ptosis and large ears with detached pinnae. Intellectual deficiency is mild to moderate. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

  In addition, in those with hearing impairment, recommended treatment may include surgical measures and/or the use of specialized hearing aids or additional supportive techniques that may aid communication. [rarediseases.org]

  Fifteen patients (45%) had conductive hearing impairment (range: 30dB–70dB). Twelve of these 15 patients (80%) received hearing aids, which resulted in improved hearing but not in speech development. [journals.lww.com]
