Abstract:
DiGeorge(DGS)syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by 22q11.2 microdeletions,most patients developed the disease in childhood.22q11.2 deletion syndrome,and the mutation types are dominated by haploid deletion of this gene.We report a young patient with hypoparathyroidism(parathyroidism)induced by DGS syndrome combined with hypocalcemic heart failure.Genetic testing revealed pathogenic copy number variants associated with the clinical phenotype of the subject.About 2 674 kb of deletion variation was detected at q11.21 position on chromosome 22,which contained the TBX1 gene and was a pathogenic mutation.This paper discusses the clinical features,pathogenesis and current treatment of DGS,and emphasizes the importance of early screening,early diagnosis and treatment,and regular follow-up of heart failure,aiming to enhance the awareness of clinicians and geneticists on DGS syndrome.
