“…Associated manifestations include classic developmental features such as birth defects and intellectual disability, and later onset features such as schizophrenia [Bassett et al, 2011; Fung et al, 2015; McDonald-McGinn et al, 2015]. Variable expression across the lifespan involves multiple organ systems, with substantial morbidity and mortality, beginning prenatally [Bales et al, 2010; Bassett et al, 2009; Bassett et al, 2005; Bassett et al, 2017; Bassett et al, 2011; Cheung et al, 2014; Costain et al, 2012; Fung et al, 2015; Gerdes et al, 2001; McDonald-McGinn et al, 2015]. Penetrance for one or more of the many associated features is high; typical 22q11.2 deletions are not found in large population control samples [Cooper et al, 2011].…”
