Haploinsufficiency of the FOXA2 associated with a complex clinical phenotype

摘要

There are few reports describing the proximal deletions of the short arm of chromosome 20, making it difficult to predict the likely consequences of these deletions. Most previously reported cases have described the association of 20p11.2 deletions with Alagille syndrome, while there are others that include phenotypes such as panhypopituitarism, craniofacial dysmorphism, polysplenia, autism, and Hirschsprung disease.
