CAT-EYE SYNDROME - A CLINICAL CASE REPORT
Main Article Content
Abstract
Cat-eye syndrome (CES) is one of the rare genetic syndromes caused by patients carrying 3 or 4 segments of chromosome 22q11.2. The incidence of the syndrome is 1/50,000 - 1/150,000 live births. Cat-eye syndrome has a very diverse and complex clinical manifestation that affects many different organs of the body. In Vietnam, there are not many studies on this syndrome. Our research reports a case of a 6-month-old female infant with Cat-eye syndrome which carries 3 segments of chromosome 22q11.2 with a multi-defect clinical manifestation (abnormal face, mental retardation, congenital heart defects). This patient is diagnosed with cell genetic test and molecular genetic test at National Hospital of Pediatrics.
