Cornelia de Lange Syndrome with NIPBL Gene Mutation: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) is a multiple congenital anomaly characterized by distinctive facial features, upper limb malformations, growth and cognitive retardation. The diagnosis of the syndrome is based on the distinctive clinical features. The etiology is still not clear. Mutations in the sister chromatid cohesion factor genes NIPBL, SMC1A (also called SMC1L1) and SMC3 have been suggested as probable cause of this syndrome. We experienced a case of newborn with CdLS showing bushy eyebrows and synophrys, long curly eyelashes, long philtrum, downturned angles of the mouth and thin upper lips, cleft palate, micrognathia, excessive body hair, micromelia of both hands, flexion contracture of elbows and hypertonicity. We detected a NIPBL gene mutation in a present neonate with CdLS, the first report in Korea.

ABSTRACT Cornelia de Lange Syndrome-1 (CdLS; OMIM # 122470) is a multisystem, congenital, developmental disorder caused by heterozygous mutation in NIPBL gene on chromosome 5p13. CdLS is characterized by growth and developmental delay, facial dysmorphism, limb abnormality and other organ defects. The condition is mainly caused due to mutation in one of the cohesin ring forming genes. Among NIPB...
