INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY, BIRK-BAREL TYPE
Alternate names
INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY, BIRK-BAREL TYPE Is also known as intellectual disability-hypotonia-facial dysmorphism syndrome, birk-barel mental retardation dysmorphism syndrome, mental retardation with hypotonia and facial dysmorphism
Description
Intellectual disability, Birk-Barel type is a rare, genetic, syndromic intellectual disability characterized by congenital central hypotonia, developmental delay, moderate to severe intellectual disability and subtle dysmorphic features which evolve over time (dolichocephaly, myopathic facies, ptosis, short and broad philtrum, tented upper lip vermillion, palatal anomalies, mild micro- and/or retrognathia). Patients present reduced facial movements, lethargy, weak cry, transient neonatal hypoglycemia, severe feeding difficulties and failure to thrive. Dysphagia, particularly of solid food, asthenic body build, joint contractures and scoliosis are additional features.
Most common symptoms of INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY, BIRK-BAREL TYPE
- Intellectual disability
- Seizures
- Global developmental delay
- Generalized hypotonia
- Micrognathia
