Diagnosis GeneReviews The diagnosis of 3-M syndrome is suggested in children with:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews The most striking feature of 3-M syndrome is the severe growth retardation, starting in utero. Birth length is 40-42 cm, whereas the head size is normal for gestational age, giving a disproportionate appearance. Catch-up growth does not occur; final height is 5-6 SD below the mean (i.e., 120-130 cm) [van der Wal et al 2001]....
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews No genotype-phenotype correlations have been reported to date. ...
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews Intrauterine growth retardation is a nonspecific finding that occurs in approximately 0.17% of all live-born children. 3-M syndrome must be distinguished from other forms of intrauterine growth retardation-malformation syndromes, including the following: ...
Management GeneReviews To establish the extent of disease in an individual diagnosed with 3-M syndrome, the following evaluations are recommended:...
