X-Linked Opitz G/BBB Syndrome

TL;DRAbstract

Clinical characteristics X-linked Opitz G/BBB syndrome (X-OS) is a multiple-congenital-anomaly disorder characterized by facial anomalies (hypertelorism, prominent forehead, widow's peak, broad nasal bridge, anteverted nares), genitourinary abnormalities (hypospadias, cryptorchidism, and hypoplastic/bifid scrotum), and laryngotracheoesophageal defects. Developmental delay and intellectual disability are observed in about 50% of affected males. Cleft lip and/or palate are present in approximately 50% of affected individuals. Other malformations (present in Diagnosis/testing The diagnosis of X-OS is established in a male proband most often by clinical findings. Identification of a hemizygous pathogenic variant in MID1 in a male proband by molecular genetic testing establishes the diagnosis if clinical features are inconclusive. The diagnosis of X-OS can be established in a female with suggestive clinical features by identification of a heterozygous pathogenic variant in MID1 on molecular
