Abstract

Sotos syndrome is an excessive growth syndrome and is characterized by macrocephaly, typical facial appearance and mental retardation. The majority of cases are sporadic, autosomal dominant inheritance pattern matching families have been reported. Syndrome responsible for gen encodes the nuclear receptor-binding SET domain1 (NSD1) protein. This rare genetic syndrome firstly described by Sotos et al. in 1964 at five cases with excessive height, acromegalic appearance and mild mental retardation. Hairline high forehead, macrocephaly, frontal bossing, long and thin face, frontotemporal hair sparseness, down slanting palpebral fissures and prominent mandible creating characteristic facial appearance and advanced bone age and varying degrees of mental retardation are other diagnostic criteria. Cardiovascular, central nervous system and genitourinary system anomalies may be associated with syndrome. In this case report we presenting a case who admitted to our clinic because of the rapid growth and mild mental retardation and diagnosed with Sotos syndrome for emphasize the importance of growth monitoring.

Boy uzunluğunun nadir bir nedeni: Sotos sendromu

Abstract

Sotos sendromu, makrosefali, tipik yüz görünümü ve mental gerilik ile karakterize bir aşırı büyüme sendromudur. Olguların çoğu sporadik olup, otozomal dominant kalıtım modeline uyan aileler bildirilmiştir. Sendromdan sorumlu gen nükleer reseptör bağlayıcı SET domain1 (NSD1) proteinini kodlar. Bu nadir genetik sendrom ilk olarak 1964 yılında, aşırı boy uzunluğu, akromegalik görünüm, ılımlı mental retardasyonu bulunan beş vakada Sotos ve arkadaşları tarafından tanımlanmıştır. Yüksek alın saç çizgisi, makrosefali, frontal bossing, uzun ve ince yüz görünümü, fronto-temporal bölgede saç seyrekliği, aşağı çekik palpebral fissürler ve belirgin mandibula karakteristik yüz görünümünü oluşturur ve ileri kemik yaşı ve değişik derecelerde mental gerilik diğer tanı kriterleridir. Kardiyovasküler, santral sinir sitemi ve genitoüriner sistem anomaliler eşlik edebilir. Biz bu olgu sunumunda kliniğimize hızlı büyüme ve hafif mental retardasyon nedeniyle başvuran ve Sotos sendromu tanısı alan bir olguyu sunarak büyüme izleminin önemini vurgulamayı amaçladık.
