Popis: |
Hunter-McAlpine syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder consisting of variable manifestations including craniosynostosis, almond-shaped palpebral fissures, small mouth, mild acral-skeletal anomalies, short stature, and mental deficiency. We report on a 9-year-old boy with this phenotype with more severe skeletal abnormalities than previously described. Chromosomes showed del(17)(q23.1--q24.2); the more severe phenotype may be explained by the deletion. The deletion also suggests the possibility that the gene for Hunter-McAlpine syndrome might map to that region. |
