Epilepsy, neuropsychiatric phenotypes, neuroimaging findings, and genotype-neurophenotype correlation in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome.

Objective: To describe the epilepsy, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and neuroimaging findings in a group of patients with 22q11.2 DS, and to correlate the size of the deleted genetic material with the severity of the phenotype.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 28 patients (21 pediatric patients and 7 adults) with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of 22q11.
