mild DYS, macrocephaly, deep palmar
creases, no feeding problems, normal head,
heart and abdomen ultrasound, global DD,
hypotonia, recurrent bronchiolitis
born after a
38 weeks uncomplicated pregnancy.
Amniocentesis due to AMA was normal. At birth
weight 2,800 g (10th centile), length of 50cm
(50th centile) and head circumference = 34 cm
(15th percentile), perinatal history was
non-significant abnormal. At 2 months admitted
to hospital because of urine tract infection;
developmental milestones significantly
delayed: sat unsupported at 12 m, walked
unaided at 22 m, first words at 2.5 y. At 2 y
8 m speech and language delay. On physical
examination he was a sociable child with mild
dysmorphic facial and body features,
(microcephaly, narrow palpebral fissures,
small eyes, high-arched palate, low set ears,
short hands and fingers and clinodactyly of
the 5th finger) but severe global DD- overall
developmental level equivalent to 16 months.
neurological examination: severely hypotonic
with microcephaly H.C. = 46cm (<2nd
percentile). height 100 cm (60th centile)
weight was 18 kg (75th percentile). MRI scan
revealed a big arachnoid cyst near to cysterna
magna. At 3.5y sociable child without
behavioral difficulties; facial dysmorphic
features more evident, especially small size
of eyes, epicanthus and broad nasal bridge;
functioning at 17 months developmental level
with an IQ level less than 46. neurological
examination: global hypotonia of trunk and
limps and microcephaly HC= 47,6 cm (<2nd
centile), but without focal neurological
signs. height 107cm (75th centile), weight
20kg (90th centile); same situation at 4.75 y
and 5.6 y
