Monosomy 5p

Monosomy 5p, also known as Cri du chat syndrome, is a rare autosomal deletion syndrome characterized by a mewing cry (cri du chat) in infancy, multiple congenital anomalies, intellectual disability, microcephaly, and facial dysmorphism.

Microcephaly

Head circumference below 2 standard deviations below the mean for age and gender.

MIXED_SAMPLE Child
A three-generation family with terminal microdeletion involving 5p15.33-32 due to a whole-arm 5;15 chromosomal translocation with a steady phenotype of atypical cri du chat syndrome.

Cri du chat syndrome is characterized by cat-like cry, facial dysmorphisms, microcephaly, speech delay, intellectual disability and slow growth rate, which are present with variable frequency.

The previously described critical region for the speech delay may be narrowed down and microcephaly, growth retardation and dysmorphic facial features can be included in the phenotypic expression of the atypical cri du chat syndrome due to 5p15.3 deletions.

The patient presented signs such as microcephaly, hypertelorism, micrognathia and epicanthal folds, partially recalling those of a deletion of the short arm of chromosome 5 and the "cri-du-chat" syndrome.

The proband showed growth and developmental retardation, complex cardiovascular abnormalities, inguinal hernia and microcephaly in addition to facial appearance and cat-like cry characteristic of the cri-du-chat syndrome.

Growth and developmental retardation, and microcephaly noted in this patient were markedly more serious than those observed in patients either with partial monosomy 5p or with partial trisomy 5q alone.

The clinical picture of both children included the main features of the cri du chat syndrome: a low birthweight, catlike cry, severe psychomotor retardation, hypotonicity, antimongoloid slant of the eyelids, microcephaly together with other symptoms determined by trisomy 4q.

At the time of admission to our service, she showed typical symptoms of "cri-du-chat" syndrome, namely, characteristic cry, mental retardation (DQ was 48), microcephaly (head circumference was 34.5 cm), rounded face, hypertelorism, oblique palpebral fissures, epicanthus, low-set ears, micrognathia, short neck, simian crease.

A two-year-old girl has the following features of the cri du chat syndrome: microcephaly, hypertelorism, downward slanting of the palpebral fissures, psychomotor retardation and a cat-like cry.
