Abstract

Objective To make literature review and case analysis on the current status and progress of Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome(WHS), in order to provide the basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods A case of a child diagnosed with WHS in Children Healthcare outpatientand with main manifestation of growth retardation was used. The WHS was discussed in terms of genetic patterns, clinical phenotype and genotype, diagnostic techniques and so on. Results The occurrence of WHS was associated with multiple genes. The loss of a single gene can not accurately explain the cause of the disease. Its clinical phenotype was complex, physical and mental retardation was one of the common clinical manifestations. Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) technique was the first choice for the diagnosis of this disease. Conclusion Clinicians need to find out the clinical features of disease through detailed disease history and physical examination, and to use cytogenetic detection technology appropriately to study the pathogenesis and genetic characteristics of WHS in order to provide basis for clinical treatment and prognosis.
