AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE PRIMARY MICROCEPHALY

Alternate names

AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE PRIMARY MICROCEPHALY Is also known as mcph, premature chromosome condensation with microcephaly and mental retardation, pcc syndrome, true microcephaly, premature chromosome condensation syndrome, microcephalia vera, microcephaly vera

Description

Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly (MCPH) is a rare genetically heterogeneous disorder of neurogenic brain development characterized by reduced head circumference at birth with no gross anomalies of brain architecture and variable degrees of intellectual impairment.

Most common symptoms of AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE PRIMARY MICROCEPHALY

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Short stature
  • Microcephaly

MICROCEPHALY 17, PRIMARY, AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE; MCPH17

Description

Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly-17 (MCPH17) is a severe neurologic disorder characterized by very small head circumference that is apparent at birth and worsens over time (up to -12 SD). Affected individuals have delayed psychomotor development, intellectual disability, spasticity, axial hypotonia, and dysmorphic features. Brain imaging shows a simplified gyral pattern; more severe cases have lissencephaly with hypoplasia of the brainstem and cerebellum (summary by Harding et al., 2016).For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of primary microcephaly, see MCPH1 (OMIM ).

Most common symptoms of MICROCEPHALY 17, PRIMARY, AUTOSOMAL RECESSIVE; MCPH17

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Short stature
  • Generalized hypotonia
