Signs and symptoms
Common signs and symptoms that may indicate this condition.
Warning signs - seek immediate care
Seizures
Seek immediate emergency care for any seizure lasting more than 5 minutes or if it's the first seizure.
Congenital heart defects
Structural heart abnormalities present at birth, including ventricular septal defects or other malformations.
Cardiac evaluation is essential; seek immediate care if symptoms of heart failure develop such as rapid breathing or poor feeding.
Global developmental delay
(constitutional)Significant delays in reaching developmental milestones such as sitting, crawling, walking, and speech.
Frequency: 90-100% of patients
Hypotonia
(neurologic)Reduced muscle tone resulting in floppy limbs and difficulty with motor activities.
Frequency: 80-90% of patients
Growth retardation
(constitutional)Slow growth in height and weight, often evident prenatally and continuing after birth.
Frequency: 85-95% of patients
Intellectual disability
(constitutional)Impaired cognitive function ranging from mild to severe, affecting learning and problem-solving.
Frequency: 90-100% of patients
Feeding difficulties
(gastrointestinal)Problems with sucking, swallowing, or feeding that may require specialized feeding methods.
Frequency: 40-50% of patients
Speech and language delay
(neurologic)Frequency: 75-85% of patients
Renal abnormalities
(genitourinary)Kidney malformations such as horseshoe kidney or renal dysplasia.
Frequency: 10-20% of patients
Facial dysmorphism
(constitutional)Distinctive facial features including deep-set eyes, prominent forehead, and abnormal ear placement.
Frequency: 70-80% of patients

First-line treatments
Comprehensive Monitoring Program
Regular surveillance for associated cardiac, renal, and developmental complications through scheduled imaging and laboratory assessments.
Drug therapy and clinical monitoring
Active treatment with regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is recommended.
Corrective Surgical Interventions
Surgical repair of structural anomalies such as congenital heart defects, cleft palate, or skeletal abnormalities as clinically indicated.
Additional treatment options
Developmental Physical Therapy
Early intervention therapy focusing on motor skill development, muscle tone normalization, and mobility enhancement.
