1例Rubinstein-Taybi综合征的临床及CREBBP基因新突变分析

患儿女,3岁8个月,出生身长、体重正常。生后喂养困难。身高、体重及头围均低于第3百分位,伴智力障碍,面容特别,表现为拱形粗眉、眼裂下斜、宽鼻梁,但无喙状鼻尖、宽大的拇指及脚趾,基本符合Rubinstein-Taybi综合征(RSTS)的临床表现。基因测序发现患儿CREBBP基因c.3779+1GT杂合剪接位点突变,其父母该位点无变异,患儿明确诊断为RSTS。c.3779+1GT在人类基因突变数据库中未见报道,为新的致病性突变。确诊后主要针对患儿语言及运动发育落后进行康复训练。目前患儿门诊随访3个月,尚未评估康复治疗疗效。

Clinical features of Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome and novel mutation in the CREBBP gene:an analysis of one case

The patient was a girl aged 3 years and 8 months with normal body length and body weight at birth. The girl had feeding difficulty after birth. Her height, body weight, and head circumference were below the 3rd percentile. She had intellectual disability and an unusual facies manifesting as arched shaggy eyebrows, down-slanting palpebral fissures, and broad nasal bridge, but had no a beaked nose, broad thumbs, or big toes. These clinical manifestations were basically consistent with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS). Gene sequencing identified a heterozygous splice site mutation, c.3779T+1G>T, in the CREBBP gene, which did not exist in her parents. Therefore, a definite diagnosis of RSTS was made. The mutation c.3779T+1G>T had not been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database and was identified as a novel pathogenic mutation. Then the girl was given rehabilitation training for delayed language and motor development. The girl has been followed up for 3 months in the outpatient department, but the effect of rehabilitation treatment has not been evaluated.
