| Name | Phelan-McDermid syndrome; Chromosome 22q13.3 deletion syndrome |
| Description | Phelan-McDermid syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by a microdeletion on chromosome 22. It is characterized by severe expressive-language delay, mild mental retardation, hypotonia, joint laxity, dolichocephaly, and minor facial dysmorphisms. It has been indicated that this syndrome may also be caused by mutations in the SHANK3/PROSAP2 gene. |
