• Disability

  The onset is prenatal and continues postnatally causing severe microcephaly, a bird-like face, dwarfism, and severe intellectual disability.[1][2] Facial features of Seckel Syndrome Prevalence[edit | edit source] Seckel Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder [physio-pedia.com]

  Intellectual and developmental disabilities are also common. Despite an array of physical and mental challenges facing a person with Seckel syndrome, many have been known to live well in excess of 50 years. [verywellhealth.com]

• Swelling

  MN were visualized following swelling in KCl and fixation in Carnoy's fixative by staining DNA with DAPI, whilst the cytoplasm was differentially stained using acridine orange (2 µg/ml). [academic.oup.com]

• Small Head

  Symptoms: Symptoms may include the following: Very small at birth (average birth weight is 1,540 g or about 3.3 pounds). Extremely small proportionate stature (dwarfism). Very small head (microcephaly). "Beak-like" protrusion of the nose. [medigoo.com]

  Persons with Seckel syndrome have distinct physical and developmental characteristics, including: Very small size and weight at birth (average 3.3 pounds) Extremely small, proportionate stature Abnormally small head size (microcephaly) A beak-like protrusion [verywellhealth.com]

  Physical findings: The physical findings of SCKL include: • Small for gestational age at birth; • Extremely small but proportionate stature (dwarfism); • Small head size (microcephaly); • Pointed nose; • Narrow face; • Malformed ears; • High arched roof [secure.ssa.gov]

  Seckel syndrome may be suspected if a fetus has a small head (microcephaly), slow growth or features of the head and face (craniofacial) associated with Seckel syndrome. [rarediseases.org]

  Seckel syndrome is suspected if a fetus has a small head, slow growth, and changes to the head and face associated with the condition. [physio-pedia.com]

• Hirsutism

  Occasionally, clinodactyly, hip dysplasia, radial dislocation, cryptorchidism, hirsutism, clitoridomegaly, dental abnormalities, corpus callosum agenesis, and others may also be observed. [cags.org.ae]

  In addition, affected children may have increased body hair (hirsutism). Another possible feature is a single, deep crease across the palms of the hands (single palmar crease). [rarediseases.org]

• Ataxia

  One form of Seckel syndrome can be caused by mutation in the gene encoding ataxia-telangiectasia and RAD3-related protein ATR which maps to chromosome 3q22.1-q24. [wikidoc.org]

  The gene was later identified to be the ATR (Ataxia-Telangiectasia and RAD3-Related) gene. [cags.org.ae]

  This gene has subsequently been identified as ATR (ataxia-telangiectasia and RAD-3 related protein) in the same families. [medigoo.com]

  Mutations in ATM cause ataxia telangiectasia (A-T), a human condition conferring clinical and cellular radiosensitivity, progressive ataxia, cancer predisposition (mainly lymphoma) and immune dysfunction (16). [academic.oup.com]

  Males with Seckel syndrome may have testes that do not lower properly (cryptorchidism). Affected females may have a large clitoris (clitoromegaly). In addition, affected children may have increased body hair (hirsutism). [rarediseases.org]

All mitotic cells in Figure 3 have been obtained following 24 h treatment with 1.5 µM nocodazole, the same treatment used to examine for NF cells. Figure 4. [academic.oup.com]

The patient died 1 year later of complications related to treatment of a rapidly progressing intracranial aneurysm. This report documents the first case associating moyamoya and Seckel syndromes. [thejns.org]

Treatment: There is no cure for Seckel syndrome. Certain medications may be prescribed to address other symptoms associated with the disorder. [medigoo.com]

TREATMENT Treatment for SCKL is symptom specific. Affected school age children may benefit from early intervention programs and special education. [secure.ssa.gov]

Treatment Growth retardation associated with Seckel syndrome shows some response to growth hormone therapy if started early into the natural history of the disease. [3]. [wikidoc.org]

Discussion and conclusion: Recognizing and giving multidisciplinary follow-up will help to know the etiology of the disease, as well as its evolution, management and genetic counseling. [go.gale.com]

Without a codified etiological treatment, a psychotherapist support, a genetic counseling, a regular pediatric follow-up, a quarterly odontostomatological and ophthalmological follow- up have been recommended. [mdpi.com]
