Additional Information:

Clinical Description OMIM Patil and Bartley (1984) reported a 4-year-old girl with an interstitial deletion of chromosome 17p11.2. She had mental retardation, hypotonia, speech delay, small ears, conductive hearing loss, esotropia, dental enamel dysplasia, and prominent premaxilla. Cardiac examination was normal. ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations OMIM Natacci et al. (2000) reported a 22-year-old woman with a deletion in the short arm of chromosome 17 who presented with the clinical manifestations of both Smith-Magenis syndrome and Joubert syndrome (JBTS; 213300). Facial anomalies, brachydactyly, severe mental ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Chevillard et al. (1993) described a 5-Mb YAC contig spanning the CMT1A duplicated segment and the distal part of 4 SMS microdeletions. They identified the first expressed sequence located in the SMS critical region: the gene coding for ...
Population genetics OMIM Smith-Magenis syndrome occurs in approximately 1 in 25,000 births (Juyal et al., 1996).
Diagnosis GeneReviews The diagnosis of SMS depends on genetic testing that demonstrates either a 17p11.2 deletion that includes RAI1 or a mutation of RAI1....
Clinical Description GeneReviews Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) has a clinically recognizable phenotype that includes physical, developmental, and behavioral features (Table 2). Males and females are affected equally. The facial appearance is characterized by a broad square-shaped face, brachycephaly, prominent forehead, synophrys, mildly upslanting palpebral fissures, deep-set eyes, broad nasal bridge, midfacial retrusion (formerly known as midfacial hypoplasia), short, full-tipped nose with reduced nasal height, micrognathia in infancy changing to relative prognathia with age, and a distinct appearance of the mouth, with fleshy everted vermilion of the upper lip. ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews Parental origin of the 17p deletion has not been documented to affect the phenotype, suggesting that imprinting does not play a role in the expression of the typical SMS phenotype....
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) should be distinguished from other syndromes that include developmental delay, infantile hypotonia, short stature, distinctive facies, and a behavioral phenotype. The most common of these include the following, which can be distinguished using cytogenetic (FISH) and/or molecular analysis:...
Management GeneReviews To establish the extent of disease in an individual diagnosed with Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), the following evaluations are recommended:...
