The loss of ANKRD11 gene confirms the diagnosis of KBG syndrome but does not elucidate the pediatric phenotype providing a counseling challenge. With the expansion of prenatal diagnosis, and the potential to perform whole-exome sequencing antenatally, we must describe the genetic abnormalities, antenatal ultrasound findings, and phenotype concurrently to facilitate counseling.
ANKRD11基因缺失可确诊KBG综合征,但无法阐明小儿表型,这给遗传咨询带来了挑战。随着产前诊断的扩展以及产前进行全外显子测序的可能性,我们必须同时描述基因异常、产前超声检查结果和表型,以便于进行遗传咨询。
