Recurrent Transmission of a 17q12 Microdeletion and a Variable Clinical Spectrum

Abstract: The relatively rare proximal microdeletion of 17q12 (including deletion of the HNF1B gene) is associated with the renal cysts and diabetes syndrome. Recent reports have suggested that there may also be an association between this microdeletion and learning difficulties/autism. This case report describes one of only a few reported families segregating the 17q12 microdeletion, but which highlights the nonpenetrance and variable expressivity of multiple features of this condition.

“…Nevertheless, no other illnesses or health problems were found. To elucidate the various clinical presentations and characteristics of Chr17 deletion, we compared the clinical manifestations in our proband and previously reported patients with a similar deletion region (34,437.475-36,424,950) in Chr17q12 [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] (Fig. 2, Table 1).…”

“…As shown in Table 1, individuals with similar gene deletions could manifest various presentations and disorders (such as diabetes, renal cysts, liver and pancreas malformations, and intellectual disability). Even between parents and children without differences in the deletion region, the significant variance in clinical phenotypes is presented [7,11,13]. Likewise, the severity of renal and pancreatic defects varied between monozygotic twins with MODY5 due to Chr17q12 deletion [8].…”
