In general 70% of sSMC carriers are clinically normal. The figures listed above

are based on the bias, that mainly clinically aberrant cases are studied and reported in literature!

Born by caesarean section at 37 weeks of pregnancy; pregnancy was complicated by mild bleeding that resolved spontaneously in the first trimester. Presentation was breech. At birth, APGAR 7 and 9, at 1 and 5 min, respectively. weight and length were 3275 g (50th percentile) and 51 cm (50th75th percentile), respectively; his OFC was 33.56 cm (25th percentile). Dysmorphic: cranium was asymmetric, with overlapping of the frontal bone over the parietals, a prominent metopic suture, and a very small anterior fontanel; long face with a prominent, bulbous nose, and microretrognatia. Finger and toes were long. Both hands with finger contractures of second through fourth fingers and extension of the fifth finger, in a position reminiscent of trisomy 18; hypotonic and initially sucked poorly. At 3 months, generally in good health, showed mild developmental delay, and altered muscular tone (hypertonia of lower limbs and hypotonia of upper limbs). weight 6990 g (85th percentile), length 66.5 cm (>95th percentile), and OFC 41.5 cm (55th percentile); strabismus and a left epicanthic fold; ears small and low-set, nasal bridge wide, nipples hypoplastic, and a hydrocele was noted; sacral pilonidal sinus and hypoplastic toenails; audiogram → bilateral sensor neural hearing loss. At 7 months, weight (9360 g) and length (76 cm) are at 85th and 97th percentile, respectively, OFC 45.6cm (75th percentile). He is alert and responsive but did not roll over.

Born at 37 weeks gestation with loop of umbilical cord and APGAR scores 4, 7, and 10 at 1, 5, and 10 min. Birth weight 2,810 g (10th-5th centile), length 51 cm (50th-90th centile). Facial dysmorphism and left body hemihypertroph; psychomotor development delayed. Cerebral tomography at 1 year old: ventricular dilatation and septum lucidum cyst. At 6 years: he underwent treatment for left Wilms tumor (stage II) including left nephrectomy, chemotherapy, and irradiation. He had two fractures of the left femur at 17 years old. At 23 years: weight 43 kg, height 162 cm (underestimated because of a severe scoliosis), head circumference 56 cm. Face and body were asymmetrical, with left hemi-hypertrophy. Dysmorphic features: up-slanting palpebral fissures, strabismus, long pyramidal nose, short philtrum, retrognathism and low-set, small and squared right ear with a thick helix. Fingers thin and long, toes stocky with bilateral hallux valgus. Other features: severe scoliosis, asymmetry of lower limbs, numerous naevi, DD with sociable behavior and hearing loss.

Delivery with caesarean section because of dystocia and reduction of cardiac rate for a few minutes. Birth after 39 weeks of gestation, weight 2.750 g (10th centile), length 50 cm (>25th centile), OFC 32 cm (<3rd centile). APGAR 7 and 10. At birth congenital bilateral strabismus. DD; did not walk until 18-20 months, no speech at ~5y. At 4y 8m severe language delay and behavioral problems (hyperactivity, motor stereotypes, social isolation); no relevant dysmorphic features except prominence of metopic sutures and he seemed older than his chronological age and bone age equivalent to that of a 7-year-old boy. Occipitofrontal circumference 52 cm (50-75th centile), weight 22.300 g, height 118 cm (at and above the 97th centile). He was clumsy with deficits noted in fine motor coordination. He was toilet trained. In routine blood analysis slight anemia with microcytosis. Brain MRI scan 0.5 T images showed a supratentorial widening of the ventricular system and a slight asymmetry, with irregular outline of lateral ventricles. A minor brain malformation, i.e., a thin corpus callosum and hypotrophic shortened hippocampi with slight asymmetry of the cerebellar tonsils, the right one slightly overhanging the foramen magnum, was seen. He met the criteria for classic autism in all the three main domains which are usually considered, i.e., communication, reciprocal social interactions and behavior. At 4 years and 9 months he experienced his first seizure, characterized by localized motor phenomena (left arm myoclonic jerks and deviation of gaze and head to the right) followed by generalized tonic clonic activity.
