Autosomal dominant intellectual disability-craniofacial anomalies-cardiac defects syndrome is a rare genetic disorder which is characterized by multi-systemic symptoms primarily affecting the intellect and post-natal development.
Signs and symptoms
[edit]Symptoms within people with the disorder vary, but they are generally the following:[1]
Intellectual
[edit]Developmental
[edit]- Widespread developmental delays
- Speech delays (which can sometimes last into adulthood)
- Feeding difficulties
Intestinal
[edit]- Acid reflux
- Chronic constipation
Cardiac
[edit]Ocular
[edit]- Strabismus
- Amblyopia
- Refractory errors
Facial
[edit]- Broad nose
- Thin upper lip
- Bitemporal narrowing
- Microcephaly
Less common symptoms include craniosynostosis, autism, sleep disturbance, epilepsy, recurrent viral infections.
Causes
[edit]This condition is caused by heterozygous mutations in the KAT6A gene, in chromosome 8.[2][3] These mutations are often sporadic, and are either frameshift,[4] missense, and nonsense.[5]
Diagnosis
[edit]Diagnosis of the disorder is established by gene sequencing.[1]
