Clinical Information. A cardiofacial syndrome with a variable phenotype, which may change with age, many characteristics of which overlap those of the turner syndrome. Short stature and mild mental retardation are the main features of this syndrome.
The phenotype varies from normal growth and head circumference with mild psychomotor retardation and lack of eczema to severe growth and mental retardation, microcephaly, behavioral problems, aplastic anemia, immunological disorders, neoplasms, and eczema some features of this syndrome are similar to those in bloom and fetal alcohol syndromes.
The majority of cases are caused by mutations in the nipbl gene. Less severe forms of the syndrome are caused by mutations in the smc1a and smc3 genes.
Q87.1 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail.
