What is Cornelia de Lange Syndrome?

Cornelia de Lange Syndrome also known as CdLS, is a little known and rare genetic disorder resulting in severe developmental abnormalities.

: CdLS Quick Facts :

CdLS is a genetic syndrome present from birth. There is no cure.
CdLS occurs in approximately 1 in 10,000 live births. It affects males and females equally, and is seen in all races.
The severity of CdLS ranges from mild to severe, but all individuals with CdLS share similar characteristics, such as small stature, hands, feet, and head; joined eyebrows; long eyelashes; upturned nose; and thin, down-turned lips. Physical and cognitive development is delayed. Self-injurious behavior is common, and between 60-70% display some degree of autism spectrum disorder. Speech and language are delayed or absent. Limb differences and/or missing limbs occur in 25% of cases. Common medical problems include gastroesophageal reflux disease, bowel abnormalities, heart defects, seizures, and cleft palate.
Since 2004, changes in three different genes have been identified as causing CdLS. These genes are NIPBL on chromosome 5; SMC1A on the X chromosome; and SMC3 on chromosome 10. Changes in the latter two genes seem to correlate with a milder form of the syndrome.
In 99% of cases, the gene change that causes CdLS is sporadic, not inherited, which means the change occurs randomly during conception.
Researchers estimate there are 20,000 individuals in the U.S. who have CdLS but live without diagnosis and/or support services.

Why did I post this?

I am the grandparent of a CdLS child hoping to raise awareness of this rare disorder and in turn, bring much needed support to the affected families.

This awareness campaign is dedicated to my Granddaughter
