The clinical phenotype of Koolen-de Vries syndrome in Turkish patients and literature review.

Koolen-de Vries syndrome (KdVS) is a rare multisystemic disorder caused by a microdeletion on chromosome 17q21.31 including KANSL1 gene or intragenic pathogenic variants in KANSL1 gene. Here, we describe the clinical and genetic spectrum of eight Turkish children with KdVS due to a de novo 17q21.

Expanding the clinical and molecular features of trichorhino- phalangeal syndrome with a novel variant.

Background: Tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder characterized by typical craniofacial features, ectodermal and skeletal findings. TRPS type 1 (TRPS1) is caused by pathogenic variations in the TRPS1 gene, which relates to the vast majority of cases. TRPS type 2 (TRPS2) is a contiguous gene deletion syndrome involving loss of functional copies of the TRPS1, RAD21, and EXT1.
