Noonan syndrome associated with SOS1 gene mutation Case Report
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Noonan syndrome is a dominant autosomal inherited ge-netic disorder with variable phenotypic expression. It is found within diseases known as rasopathies and is pro-duced by mutations in RAS genes. Patients are character-ized by facial dysmorphism, short stature, congenital heart disease, musculoskeletal disorders, and, in some cases, intellectual disability.
Clinical case: This report describes the case of a one-month-old male patient who comes to the outpatient clinic, presenting with facial dysmorphism and pulmonary steno-sis, for which a multidisciplinary follow-up is carried out due to suspicion of Noonan syndrome. From the fourth month, the patient developed lymphedema in the deltoid area.
Evolution: At 7 months of age, exome sequencing was per-formed, finding a pathogenic variant in the SOS1 gene and confirming the diagnosis of this syndrome.
Conclusion: This case documents the presence of Noonan syndrome with a mutation of the SOS1 gene with typical facial dysmorphology, pulmonary valve stenosis, cryptor-chidism and lymphatic dysplasia with deltoid.
