[edit] Marshall-Smith syndrome
Discovered in 1971 (Marshall, Graham, Scott, Boner, & Smith). Marshall-Smith Syndrome is characterized by unusual accelerated skeletal maturation (usually starting before birth) and symptoms like conspicuous physical characteristics, respiratory difficulties, and mental retardation. Cases described in the literature show a clinical variabililty regarding related symptoms. For instance, respiratory difficulties are ranging from absent to severe difficulties. See: clinical synopsis).
[edit] Definition
Encyclopedia of Genetic Disorders
[edit] Description
The syndrome is a rare clinical disorder [1].
- Online Mendelian inheritance in man - MARSHALL-SMITH SYNDROME
- Encyclopedia of Genetic Disorders
- Marshall-Smith syndrome
[edit] Phenotype
An extended synopsis can be found at the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM): clinical synopsis.
- Physical
- Mental
- Often associated with mental retardation (of variable degree) [2]
[edit] Health and screening
- Clinical course
- Respiratory difficulties (like upper airway obstruction as observed in [1])). (Note regarding clinical variabililty: respiratory difficulties might be absent[4].)
- Pneumonia [3]
- Failure to thrive [3]
- Psychomotor retardation [3]
Respiratory complications are often cause of death in early infancy. [5]
[edit] Treatment
See for example sections Case report and Research.
Note: Due to complicated medical treatment of symptoms (sometimes in parallel involving several hospitals, medical divisions, and specialists), preventive actions on easily treatable, minor issues can easily be overlooked.
