Descriptor Spanish: Síndrome de Noonan
Descriptor síndrome de Noonan
Entry term(s) síndrome de Turner masculino
Scope note: Trastorno genéticamente heterogéneo y multifacético caracterizado por estatura baja, cuello alado, ptosis, malformaciones esqueléticas, hipertelorismo, alteraciones hormonales, CRIPTORQUIDIA, diversas anomalías cardíacas (muy frecuentemente ESTENOSIS VALVULAR PULMONAR) y cierto grado de DISCAPACIDAD INTELECTUAL. El fenotipo es semejante al del SÍNDROME DE TURNER, que solo se da en mujeres y se debe a una alteración del cariotipo 45,X. El síndrome de Noonan se da tanto en hombres como en mujeres y se asocia a un cariotipo normal (46,XX y 46,XY). El fenotipo SN se ha asociado a mutaciones de diversos genes (PTPN11, KRAS, SOS1, NF1 y RAF1). Las más frecuentes son las mutaciones de PTPN11. El SÍNDROME LEOPARD, un trastorno que comparte características clínicas con el síndrome de Noonan, también se debe a mutaciones de PTPN11. Además, hay solapamiento con el denominado síndrome de neurofibromatosis-Noonan, debido a mutaciones de NF1.

Scope note: A genetically heterogeneous, multifaceted disorder characterized by short stature, webbed neck, ptosis, skeletal malformations, hypertelorism, hormonal imbalance, CRYPTORCHIDISM, multiple cardiac abnormalities (most commonly including PULMONARY VALVE STENOSIS), and some degree of INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY. The phenotype bears similarities to that of TURNER SYNDROME that occurs only in females and has its basis in a 45, X karyotype abnormality. Noonan syndrome occurs in both males and females with a normal karyotype (46,XX and 46,XY). Mutations in a several genes (PTPN11, KRAS, SOS1, NF1 and RAF1) have been associated the NS phenotype. Mutations in PTPN11 are the most common. LEOPARD SYNDROME, a disorder that has clinical features overlapping those of Noonan Syndrome, is also due to mutations in PTPN11. In addition, there is overlap with the syndrome called neurofibromatosis-Noonan syndrome due to mutations in NF1.
