“almond-shaped” palpebral fissures
narrow nasal bridge
Cryptorchidism (males)
Angelman symptoms

seizures
myotonic dystrophy (appearance)
joint ctroactures

*note: Autosomal DOMinant
SMA findings (prenatal form - type 0 vs type 1)
Type 0 (prenatal):
- multiple joint contractures
- generalized weakness at birth
Type 1 (early life)
- hypotonia, wekaness
- mild contractures of large joints
- absent deep tendon reflexes
- tongue fascinations
*deterioration in survival motor neurons leads to motor delays and often early death due 2/2 respiratory compromise
Werdnig Hoffman disease aka…
SMA type 1 (presents in early life)
Frequently the only manifestation of NF-1 in infants and children
Cafe au lait macules
Prader-Wili genetics
deletion of PATernal allele in 15q11-13
(maternal uniparental disomy)
- less commonly can result from a translocation
Angelman genetics
deletion of MATernal allele in 15q11-13
(paternal uniparental disomy)
Myotonic dystrophy genetics
trinucleotide repeat
