Chromosome 15 Ring Syndrome

Abstract In this paper, the authors present the case of a 24-year-old female with ring 15 chromosome syndrome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Severe Clinical Course

    Discussion We report a case of ring chromosome 15 in an infant girl who died after a severe clinical course at the age of 33/4 months. A lethal course has not been reported among the 21 previous cases with this rare chromosomal disorder. [docslide.com.br]

  • Delayed Dentition

    In addition to postnatal growth delay, she had scant frontal hair, small eyes, hypertelorism, low-set of ears, flattened nasal bridge, anteverted nostrils, down-turned mouth, three café au lait spots, and delayed dentition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Short Legs

    External inspection revealed (Fig. 1): microcephaly (32cm, 5th centile is 34.2cm); high forehead, low-set, large, abnormally-shaped ears; short thumbs, cone-shaped fingers; short legs, plump feet with were held adducted and extend- ed. [docslide.com.br]

  • Hirsutism

    PMDD hyperreflexia, ankle clonus, and Babinski sign–46,XX,r(11)(p15q25); no variations in chromosome size; no apparent loss of chromosome material; minimal instability of chromosome constitution; and parents with normal karyotype (2) 2 months/FMild hirsutism [edmcasereports.com]

    Our patient, a Caucasoid Asian woman, presented with short stature, microcephaly, minor dysmorphic features, hyperextensible knees, generalized hirsutism, café-au-lait and small hypochromic spots spread over her face and the front of her chest and abdomen [jmedicalcasereports.biomedcentral.com]

  • Hypopigmented Macule

    Two unrelated girls presented with multiple disseminated, paired, small café-au-lait spots and hypopigmented macules, suggesting didymosis (twin spotting). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    The patient was referred to our Unit because of persistent thrombocytopenia and syndactyly, pes planus and a bilateral Babinski sign. The remainder of physical examination revealed curly hair, thin upper lip, broad nasal bridge and tip. [omicsonline.org]

Genetic diagnosis in cases of SS is important because it can end the diagnostic workup for the patient, it may alert the clinician to other medical comorbidities for which the patient is at risk, and it is extremely valuable for the genetic counselling [abstracts.eurospe.org]

  • Insulin-like Growth Factor I Increased

    During the first year of treatment, the insulin-like growth factor I increased from subnormal 4.2 nmol/l to normal 13.8 nmol/l and the insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 levels increased from 2.6 to 3.8 mg/l, whereas high binding protein 1 concentrations [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

There was no significant difference between the mean GH concentrations during rhIGF-I treatment (5.32 /- 6.2 mU/l) compared with that before rhIGF-I treatment (8.46 /- 10.2 mU/l). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

During the two years of treatment his relative height improved from -6.2 SD to -4.4 SD and the predicted adult height from 159.6 cm to 163.5 cm. Owing to the good growth response, we have decided to continue GH treatment. [jmg.bmj.com]

(Etiology) Ring Chromosome 15 Syndrome is caused by an abnormal chromosome known as a ring chromosome 15 or r(15). [dovemed.com]

Our goal is to determine the molecular etiology of the seizures associated with the ring chromosome 14 syndrome. [ring14.org]

Karyotype assessment is important to consider in all epilepsies where the etiology is uncertain as dysmorphic features may be subtle or not apparent. Karyotype examination should be extended to 50-100 mitoses to exclude mosaicism. [epilepsydiagnosis.org]
