The Kabuki syndrome is a well-established pattern of human malformation with readily recognizable features, however the diagnosis is rarely made in the newborn period. The purpose of this study was to determine if there exists a neonatal phenotype for this disorder. We ascertained 16 infants evaluated in the first 28 days of life by a dysmorphologist who subsequently received the diagnosis of Kabuki syndrome. The average age of initial evaluation was 8 days and the average age of diagnosis was 2 years 6 months. Based on these findings, it is suggested that the distinctive clinical phenotype seen in older patients is also evident in the newborn period.

This report details the case of a preadolescent female patient diagnosed with Kabuki syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterised by distinctive facial features, growth delay and cognitive impairment. The patient's medical history includes perinatal complications, alongside challenges in developmental milestones, feeding and psychomotor skills since infancy, prompting further investigation. Genetic testing confirmed the diagnosis, revealing a full deletion of The patient underwent a multidisciplinary approach, addressing various aspects of her condition, which resulted in significant improvements in several areas.

Kabuki syndrome is a rare genetic disease with multisystemic effects including ocular manifestations. The authors report a patient with known Kabuki syndrome who presented with bilateral euryblepharon, bilateral ptosis, OD hypotropia, and blue sclera. A bilateral lateral tarsal strip procedure was performed followed by a left frontalis sling with a silicone implant and a right external levator advancement with success.

Complex direct and indirect relationships between multiple variables, termed higher order interactions (HOIs), are characteristics of all natural systems. Traditional differential and network analyses fail to account for the omic datasets richness and miss HOIs. We investigated peripheral blood DNA methylation data from Kabuki syndrome type 1 (KS1) and control individuals, identified 2,002 differentially methylated points (DMPs), and inferred 17 differentially methylated regions, which represent only 189 DMPs.

Kabuki syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by a distinctive combination of craniofacial features, developmental anomalies, and intellectual disabilities. This study aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of Kabuki syndrome through a meticulous case series analysis focusing on its clinical features and genetic underpinnings. A cohort of 9 Kabuki syndrome patients was identified through a retrospective examination of medical records spanning from 1996 to 2022.
