Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical features,diagnosis,genetic characteristics and treatment of congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ⅰg (CDG-Ⅰg) and to raise the awareness of CDG-Ⅰg among the clinicians.Method The data of one child with CDG-Ⅰg admitted to Shanghai Children's Medical Center affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine was studied retrospectively.Literatures were retrieved with key words including "congenital glycosylation disorder Ⅰg","ALG12","congenital glycosylation defect Ⅰg","CDG-Ⅰg" and "congenital disorder" in the Chinese knowledge network,VP database,Wanfang database,Biomedicine,PubMed and the Web of Science database from data established until January 2018.We summarized the clinical and genetic characteristics of CDG-Ⅰg.Result An one-day-old male infant admitted to the Hospital due to "poor response with hypoglycemia" manifested with facial deformity,hypotonia,inverted nipples,micropenis and undescended testes.He had intermittent hypoglycemia and recurrent infection,treated with antimicrobials,glucose rehydration and hormone therapy.Serum insulin,growth hormone level,blood and urine metabolic screening were normal.The patient was compound heterozygous for ALG12 mutations,c.432C ＞ A,p.Cys144 * and c.904T ＞ C,p.Tyr302His,each of his parents carried a pathogenic mutation.The patient died in follow-up for unknown reasons.No reported cases of CDG-Ⅰg from China have so far been reported yet.We reviewed the other 8 cases CDG-Ⅰg (4 males and 4 females) born in foreign countries,5 of them with neonatal onset.Common clinical manifestaions include facial deformity,hypotonia,hypogenitalism,coagulopathy,hypoimmunity,recurrent infection,electroyte imbalance etc.The ALG12 gene has 11 mutation sites.Conclusion CDG-Ⅰg is a rare autosomal recessive disorder.Most reported patients had onset in neonatal period.It seems that the association of facial deformity,psychomotor retardation,hypotonia,coagulopathy,male hypogenitalism and hypoglycemia might be a clue to the diagnosis of CDG-Ⅰg.Gene detection of ALG12 can confirm the diagnosis.This disorder has no specific treatment yet.
