The Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a rare genetic syndrome. However, this is one of the most common overgrowth syndromes. This is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous syndrome. Here, we report a case of Beckwith-Weidemann syndrome without macrosomia, visceromegaly and hemihyperplasia but having macroglossia, omphalocele and anterior linear ear lobe creases. The diagnosis was confirmed by gene analysis suggestive of imprinting centre 2 (KvDMR1) hypomethylation defect.
贝克威思-维德曼综合征(BWS)是一种罕见的遗传综合征。然而,它是最常见的过度生长综合征之一。这是一种基因和临床均具有异质性的综合征。在此,我们报告一例贝克威思-维德曼综合征病例,该病例无巨大儿、内脏肿大和半身肥大,但有巨舌、脐膨出和耳垂前线性皱折。基因分析提示印记中心2(KvDMR1)低甲基化缺陷,从而确诊该病例。
