Presentation
In this report, we present the clinical phenotype in patients with aberrations of chromosomes 7p and 18p and reviewed the literature to summarize cardiovascular malformations in these patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
If an intellectual disability and/or developmental delay is present, early educational intervention and early services are important. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]

Splenomegaly
There was neither hepato-megaly nor splenomegaly. Pubertal developmentwas P1A0.Hands and feetwere normal.Neurologicalexamination was normal. [docslide.com.br]
Musculoskeletal
-
Small Hand
She was noted to have dysmorphic features (prominent occiput, high-arched palate, short nose with anteverted nares, orbital hypertelorism, depressed nasal root, low set ears, small hands with widened finger-tips, and spooned nails) and a congenital heart [synapse.koreamed.org]
Skin
-
Dermatitis
We report on a 12-year-old girl with minor facial anomalies, delayed development, abnormal hands, atopic dermatitis, and hearing loss. She was mosaic for two abnormal cell lines in peripheral blood. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Face, Head & Neck
-
Narrow Forehead
The facial dysmorphism consisted of a high, narrow forehead, hypotelorism, deep-set eyes, and abnormally shaped ears (Fig. 1 ). An examination of the hands revealed long fingers and fifth finger clinodactyly. [molecularcytogenetics.biomedcentral.com]
Minor anoma-lies reported were micrognathia, bilateral epican-thus, narrow forehead, hypotelorism, low-set ears,and narrow arched palate. There was a relativemicrocephaly with head circumference of 40 cm(1SD). [documents.tips]
Neurologic
-
Clumsiness
Prehension remained difficult forher and she had clumsy gestures. She tried tocommunicate with adults but could say a few wordslike baby. Her weight was 9.5 kg (2SD), height85 cm (0.5SD), and head circumference 46 cm*Correspondence to: M. [documents.tips]
Workup
Many will go undiagnosed until maturity as adults undergoing infertility workups. Fetuses are typically identified during amniocentesis performed for advanced maternal age. They are not normally identified because of an abnormal ultrasound finding. [chw.org]
Hypertrophy
-
Ventricular Hypertrophy
Echocardiogram showed a perimembranous-type ventricular septal defect of 5 mm and a secundum atrial septal defect of 4 mm, with right atrial enlargement and right ventricular hypertrophy ( Table 1 ). [synapse.koreamed.org]
Treatment
Emphasizes the treatment of corrected congenital heart disease for coverage of the clinical management of cardiac problems in the adolescent and young adult. [books.google.de]

Treatment is based on the signs and symptoms present in each person. MalaCards based summary : Chromosome 18p Duplication, also known as duplication 18p, is related to aortic coarctation and tetrasomy 18p. [malacards.org]
Prognosis
Diagnosis - Chromosome 18- trisomy 18p These home medical tests may be relevant to Chromosome 18, trisomy 18p: * Cold & Flu: Home Testing: o Home Fever Tests o Home Ear Infection Tests o Home Flu Tests Prognosis - Chromosome 18- trisomy 18p Not supplied [checkorphan.org]
Prognosis No correlation between trisomy 18 and prognosis. [atlasgeneticsoncology.org]
Other types of partial trisomy 18 are non-typical with reference to the craniofacial anomalies and findings in the papillary system; on the whole, the clinical pattern is weaker, and prognosis is more favourable. [thieme-connect.com]
Therefore, the precise characterization of SMCs is essential in order to perform genotype-phenotype correlation and predict the prognosis [ 4, 5 ]. [synapse.koreamed.org]
Thus, it is unclear whether heart surgery improves the prognosis of these individuals (46). [scielo.br]
Etiology
Their etiology is not precisely century with the first clinical recognition of known, so we have included chapters that dis symptoms and patterns for diagnosis of car cuss many aspects of congenital cardiac mal diovascular diseases. [books.google.de]
Etiology In ES, as well as in other trisomies, maternal age is usually older (6,9,13,17,30). [scielo.br]
Thus, further study is needed to clarify the etiology and the correlation between genes and symptoms. Besides, the patient should be followed up for a long term. Conclusion This report sheds new lights on the del(18p) syndrome. [dovepress.com]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology See the list below: Trisomy 18 severely affects all organ systems. In translocations that result in partial trisomy or in cases of mosaic trisomy 18, clinical expression is less severe, and survival is usually longer. [emedicine.medscape.com]
