Fenótipo Rett em paciente com cariótipo XXY: relato de caso

Abstract: RESUMO -Relatamos o caso de um menino com cariótipo XXY que apresenta desordem neurológica progressiva com início por volta dos 11 meses de idade, com estagnação do desenvolvimento seguida de regressão. A criança apresenta, ainda, movimentos estereotipados de mãos, apraxia manual e microcefalia. Investigações não constataram presença de qualquer condição neurológica ou sistêmica definida que pudesse ser apontada como possível etiologia para o quadro descrito. Trata-se de menino com alterações fenotípicas muito… Show more

“…However, males with a mild MECP2 mutation that would most likely produce a very mild phenotype in girls (late truncating mutations and some missense mutations) can survive but they develop severe mental retardation associated with motor abnormalities. There are also few examples of males who developed an RTT phenotype; they either have somatic mosaicism for the mutation [46] or a partial or complete Klinefelter (47,XXY) karyotype [47]. Maiwald et al [48] reported a 46,XX male with RTT caused by a mutation in the MECP2 gene; the clinical manifestation of the boy resembled female RTT cases, which was explained by the karyotype.…”

“…Em 1998, 22 foi descrito um caso de um menino que, na ocasião, tinha dois anos e nove meses de idade, apresentando fenótipo integral da SR na sua forma clássica. Esse menino, apresenta cariótipo XXY, caracterizando, portanto, uma associação das síndromes de Klinefelter com a SR, ocorrência com uma probabilidade da ordem de uma para dez a 15 milhões de nascimentos.…”

“…However, there have been a few cases reported in which Klinefelter syndrome patients (karyotype 47, XXY) exhibit hallmark symptoms of RTT, including stereotypical hand movements, hypotonia, and a loss of acquired skills over an extended period of time [Vorsanova et al, 1996;Schwartzman et al, 1998;Leonard et al, 2001]. The presence of two X-chromosomes in Klinefelter males would lead to a similar situation as in females with RTT who are mosaic for expression of the mutant allele.…”

“…Schwartzman, et al reported a sporadic case of RTT in a 47,XXY male who presented with stereotypical hand gestures, loss of purposeful hand movement and language skills, constipation, ataxia, and apnea, all after an eightmonth period of normal development [1998]. The additional X-chromosome was found to be of paternal origin, and the proband's XCI pattern determined to be random, although no MECP2 mutation was identified [Schwartzman et al, 1998]. Leonard et al [2001] reported a mosaic Klinefelter RTT male (47,XXY[23]/46,XY [7] in peripheral blood lymphocytes) with the T158M mutation in MECP2.…”
