Conditions with this feature

X-linked intellectual disability-short stature-overweight syndrome
MedGen UID:
901885
Concept ID:
C0796218
Disease or Syndrome
Kumar-type X-linked syndromic intellectual developmental disorder (MRXSK) is an X-linked recessive disorder that shows phenotypic variability and multisystem involvement apparent from birth or early infancy. Most affected individuals are male, although 1 severely affected girl with a de novo THOC2 mutation has been reported. At the severe end of the spectrum, affected individuals have hypotonia, neonatal difficulties, failure to thrive with poor overall growth, feeding difficulties, respiratory insufficiency, visual impairment, profoundly impaired intellectual development with poor or absent speech, and motor abnormalities, such as inability to walk and hyperkinetic movements. Less severely affected individuals have mildly to moderately impaired intellectual development and speech delay. Additional features include behavioral abnormalities, hearing or visual defects, seizures, dysmorphic facial features, and brain imaging abnormalities (Kumar et al., 2015; Kumar et al., 2018; Kumar et al., 2020).
