Informations about the disease

Clinical Comment

Noonan syndrome causes a wide range of health problems and morphological stigma. The most common features include unusual facies (broad forehead, drooping eyelids, telecanthus), dwarfism and heart defects. The disease starts prenatally, although milder cases are diagnosed later in childhood. Then hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, variable cognitive deficits and skeletal, ectodermal and haematological abnormalities occur as well. Noonan syndrome is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, with variable expressivity, therefore penetrance rates are difficult to determine. Genetically related (allelic) disorders include Noonan-like disorder, LEOPARD and cardiofaciocutaneous syndromes caused by mutations in several of the dozen or so genes that also cause Noonan syndrome. Round about half of the Noonan patients harbor PTPN11 mutations, in 13% SOS1 and in 8% LZTR1 mutations, finally in 5% RAF1- or RIT1 mutations each. <5% of the Noonan cases show KRAS mutations, all other "Noonan genes" are mutated in <1% of the affecteds. The diagnosis can be confirmed by molecular genetics in >85% of those affected, but a normal DNA result does not preclude clinical diagnosis.
