CHARGE Syndrome vs. DiGeorge Syndrome: A Comparison of …
OBJECTIVES: CHARGE syndrome and DiGeorge syndrome are known to have significant clinical overlap. We set out to determine features that would help physicians make appropriate decisions on molecular testing (CHD7 mutation analysis versus FISH for 22q11.2 deletion) by analyzing patients with CHARGE followed at our institution.
Features of DiGeorge syndrome and CHARGE association in five …
We report on five patients presenting with features of two congenital disorders, DiGeorge syndrome (DGS) and CHARGE association. CHARGE association is usually sporadic and its origin is as yet unknown. Conversely, more than 90% of DGS patients are monosomic for the 22q11.2 chromosomal region.

2023年3月6日 · CHARGE syndrome is an inherited disorder caused by a mutation in the DNA-binding protein-7 CHD7 gene. CHARGE syndrome is an acronym for coloboma, heart disease, atresia of the choanae, retarded growth and mental development, genital anomalies, and ear malformations and hearing loss.
Medical Professionals | Charge Syndrome Foundation
CHARGE syndrome is an extremely complex and variable syndrome most often caused by mutations in the CHD7 gene on chromosome 8. Diagnosis relies on key clinical features as well as DNA information. The range of intellectual ability in CHARGE covers the entire spectrum, with potential routinely underestimated.
