Kabuki syndrome is a rare congenital malformation with typical facial features, skeletal anomalies, delayed neuropsychomotor development and growth, and cardiac, genitourinary, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and dental anomalies. One of the main differential diagnoses is CHARGE syndrome, standing for and characterized by Coloboma of the eye, Heart defects, Atresia of the nasal choanae, Restricted intellectual development, Genitourinary malformations, and Ear anomalies. Because these syndromes have similar characteristics, distinguishing them may be challenging.
