ABSTRACT

El síndrome de Phelan McDermid es producido por una pérdida de material genético, en un cromosoma del par 22, a nivel de la banda q13.3. Se describieron cinco pacientes con deleción 22q13.3 para correlacionar genotipo-fenotipo y comunicar el primer caso descripto en gemelas siamesas. Se registraron antecedentes perinatales, psicomotores, conducta, lenguaje y presencia de dismorfas. Se realizó cariotipo e hibridación in situ fuorescente (FISH) para región crítica 22q13.3. Presentaron hipotonía, dismorfas menores, retraso madurativo y retraso o ausencia del lenguaje. Se confrmó deleción 22q13.3 en los cinco pacientes, encontrándose una deleción en dos casos y un anillo del cromosoma 22 en tres, siendo uno con línea pura, y las siamesas, con mosaicismo, con una línea celular normal. En pacientes con clínica sugestiva y fenotipo evocador de síndrome velo-cardio-facial, se debe realizar cariotipo y FISH para región crítica 22q11.2 con sonda control 22q13.3, para detectar la deleción del Síndrome de Phelan McDermid.


Phelan McDermid Syndrome is caused by the loss of genetic material in a chromosome from pair 22, at the band q13.3. We describe fve patients with deletion 22q13.3 in order to establish a genotype-phenotype association, and report the frst case described in conjoined twins. We analyzed the perinatal history, psychomotor behavior, language, and the presence of minor dysmorphism. Karyotypes and in situ hibridization (FISH) for critical region 22q13.3 were performed to all patients. There were hypotonia, developmental delay, and delay or absence of language. A 22q13.3 deletion was detected in all patients described, two cases had a deletion and the other three had a ring of chromosome 22, one in a pure cell line, while the twins presented mosaicism. Karyotype and FISH for 22q11.2 critical region should be performed, with 22q13.3 control probe to detect the deletion of Phelan McDermid syndrome in all patients with clinical phenotype suggestive and evocative of velo-cardio-facial syndrome.
