TWO SIBLINGS WITH NEURODEVELOPMENT DELAY AND AUTISTIC BEHAVIOR WITH THE SAME GENETIC MUTATION

Journal Title: World Journal of Advance Healthcare Research - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 6

Abstract

Neurodevelopmental disorders with or without autism can be inherited and impose a genetic evaluation, especially when more members of a family are involved. In this article we report the case of two siblings who came for the first time to our attention at the age of 2, 6 years for a global neurodevelopmental delay associated with an autism spectrum disorder. CGH-array analysis showed the same characteristics in both, 16p.13.11-p12.3 duplication inherited by the father. Our results correspond to other, published in literature.
