Deciphering the Invdupdel(8p) Genotype-Phenotype Correlation: Our Opinion

Brain Sciences
Manuela Lo BiancoPiero Pavone

Abstract

The 8p inverted duplication/deletion is a rare chromosomal rearrangement clinically featuring neurodevelopmental delay, mild to severe cognitive impairment, heart congenital defects and brain abnormalities. Patients affected also present typical facial dysmorphisms and skeletal malformations, and it is thought that the composite clinical picture may fall into the chromosomal rearrangement architecture. With the major aim of better framing its related clinical and diagnostic paths, we describe a patient carrying a de novo invdupde[8p] whose clinical features have not been described so far. Hence, through an extensive genotype-phenotype correlation analysis and by reviewing the dedicated scientific literature, we compared our patient's features with those reported in other patients, which allows us to place our proband's expressiveness in an intermediate area, widening the scope of the already known invdupde[8p] genotype-phenotype relationship.

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
