Extractions: What is DiGeorge syndrome? What is DiGeorge Syndrome? DiGeorge syndrome is characterized by a few specific cardiac malformations, a sub-set of facial attributes, and certain endocrine and immune anomalies. bodyOffer(20401) The cause of DiGeorge syndrome has been identified as a submicroscopic deletion of chromosome 22 in the DiGeorge chromosomal region. It is classified along with velo-cardio-facial syndrome (Shprintzen syndrome) and conotruncal anomaly face syndrome as a 22q11 microdeletion and is sometimes referred to by the simple name 22q11 syndrome. People with DiGeorge syndrome may have the following congenital heart lesions: tetralogy of Fallot, interrupted aortic arch type B, truncus arteriosus, aberrant left subclavian artery, right infundibular stenosis, or ventricular septal defect. 74% of patients with 22q11 syndrome have conotruncal malformations. 69% of patients are found to have palatal abnormalities including velopharyngeal incompetence (VPI), submucosal cleft palate, and cleft palate. Some of the facial characteristics of DiGeorge syndrome are bifid uvula, high-arched palate, small mouth and wide set eyes, down-slanting eyes, hooded eyes, long face, malar flatness, cupped low set ears, bulbous nasal tip, and a dimpled or bifurcated nasal tip. Not all people with a 22q11 microdeletion display all, or indeed, any, of these characteristics.

Extractions: Home Health Information Voice, Speech, and Language On this page: Velocardiofacial syndrome (VCFS) is a disorder that has been associated with over thirty different features. (A disease or disorder that has more than one identifying feature or symptom is a syndrome.) The name velocardiofacial syndrome comes from the Latin words "velum" meaning palate, "cardia" meaning heart and "facies" having to do with the face. Not all of these identifying features are found in each child who is born with VCFS. The most common features are cleft palate (opening in the roof of the mouth), heart defects, characteristic facial appearance, minor learning problems and speech and feeding problems. Although VCFS is the most common syndrome associated with a cleft palate, it was not recognized until 1978, at which time Dr. Robert J. Shprintzen of the Center for Craniofacial Disorders at the Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, New York, described 12 children with the disorder. Most or all of these first 12 children were born with a cleft palate, heart defects and similar faces. VCFS may also be known as Shprintzen syndrome, DiGeorge syndrome, Craniofacial syndrome or Conotruncal Anomaly Unusual Face Syndrome. Top What causes velocardiofacial syndrome?

Extractions: The Thymus and Parathyroid Glands The thymus gland is located behind the breastbone and is responsible for the maturation of T-cells to fight infections. The four parathyroid glands are located adjacent to the thyroid gland in the neck and regulate calcium in the blood through the production of parathyroid hormone. What is DiGeorge syndrome? The history of the syndrome, previously referred to as DiGeorge, includes the following discoveries: In the mid 1960s, an endocrinologist named Angelo DiGeorge, MD, recognized that a particular group of clinical features frequently occurred together, including the following: hypoparathyroidism (underactive parathyroid gland), which results in hypocalcemia (low blood calcium levels) hypoplastic (underdeveloped) thymus or absent thymus, which results in problems in the immune system

VCFS
Velocardiofacial Syndrome, also known as VCFS or as shprintzen syndrome,is the most common syndrome associated with cleft palate.
http://www.faces-cranio.org/Disord/Velo.htm

Extractions: Velocardiofacial Syndrome is an autosomal dominant condition. Genetic studies of children with this condition show that a microscopic segment on the long arm of chromosome 22 is missing. The genetic test for diagnosis of this condition is called "FISH analysis" and can be performed in many medical centers. It is not because of anything the mother did or did not do during the pregnancy.

http://www.cleft.ie/related/vcfs.htm

Extractions: Aside from cleft palate, there are up to 184 other anomalies commonly associated with VCFS, including heart defects, unique facial characteristics (elongated face, almond-shaped eyes, small ears, wide nose), speech and feeding problems, middle ear infections, and learning difficulties. Not all anomalies are present in the child, nor is any one anomaly present in all cases. The features with which the child is born do not get progressively worse over time. Inherited?

http://www.bcmgeneticlabs.org/tests/cyto/digeorgevelocardiofacial.html

Extractions: FISH ANALYSIS The Kleberg Cytogenetics Laboratory offers fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based assays for identifying the deletions of 22q associated with DiGeorge syndrome, velocardiofacial syndrome, Shprintzen syndrome and isolated conotruncal cardiac defects, and deletions on 10p associated with the DiGeorge Syndrome II locus. The laboratory tests for both critical regions (10p13p14 and 22q11.2) using a dual-probe FISH assay. Reasons for Referral: The phenotypic features of DiGeorge syndrome consist of thymic aplasia or hypoplasia, hypocalcemia and conotruncal cardiac defects. Many patients die of cardiac complications or infections due to poor immunity. Velocardiofacial (Shprintzen) syndrome appears to be milder than DiGeorge syndrome with overt or submucous cleft palates, conotruncal defects, hypotonia, dysmorphic facies, developmental delay, small stature and velopharyngeal incompetence. Testing Methodology: FISH is the application of fluorescently-labeled DNA molecules to metaphase chromosomes and interphase nuclei for the detection of chromosome abnormalities and alterations. It is a rapid, reliable and direct approach for identifying patients with microdeletions or microduplications. This dual-probe FISH assay can detect deletions on chromosome 22 at band q11.2 and chromosome 10 at bands p13p14.
