摘要

Koolen de Vries syndrome (KDVS; MIM 610443) is a genomic disorder caused by a recurrent microdeletion derived from nonallelic homologous recombination mediated by flanking segmental duplications. Clinical manifestations of this syndrome are characterized by intellectual disability, hypotonia, a friendly behavior, distinctive facial features, and epilepsy. Herein, we report a case of 2 girls who revealed global developmental delay, mild facial dysmorphisms, friendly behavior, and epileptic seizure with a de novo 17q21.31 microdeletion detected by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). Conventional cytogenetics analysis by GTG-banding showed a female karyotype 46,XX for both girls. CMA revealed a microdeletion spanning approximately 500 kb in 17q21.31 in both girls, encompassing the following genes: CRHR1, MGC57346, CRHR1-IT1, MAPT-AS1, SPPL2C, MAPT, MAPT-IT1, STH, and KANSL1. Haploinsufficiency of one or more of these genes within the deleted region is the most probable cause of the probands' phenotype and is responsible for the phenotype seen in KDVS. CMA is a powerful diagnostic tool and an effective method to identify the de novo 17q21.31 microdeletion associated with KDVS in our probands.
