Descriptor síndrome de Pierre Robin
Scope note: Malformación congénita caracterizada por MICROGNATISMO o RETROGNATISMO, GLOSOPTOSIS y PALADAR HENDIDO (HENDIDURA PALATINA). Las anomalías mandibulares a menudo provocan dificultades para succionar y deglutir. El síndrome puede presentarse aislado o asociarse con otros síndromes (por ej. SÍNDROME DE ANDERSEN, DISPLASIA CAMPOMÉLICA). Este síndrome se asocia a una alteración de la expresión alterada del FACTOR DE TRANSCRIPCIÓN SOX9 localizado en el cromosoma 17q y su región circundante.

Scope note: Congenital malformation characterized by MICROGNATHIA or RETROGNATHIA; GLOSSOPTOSIS and CLEFT PALATE. The mandibular abnormalities often result in difficulties in sucking and swallowing. The syndrome may be isolated or associated with other syndromes (e.g., ANDERSEN SYNDROME; CAMPOMELIC DYSPLASIA). Developmental mis-expression of SOX9 TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR gene on chromosome 17q and its surrounding region is associated with the syndrome.
