We report a 6 month old boy with congenital hydronephrosis, cleft palate, severe hypotonia, congenital heart defect, developmental delay, and characteristic facial features with an open mouthed appearance and full lower lip, who we believe is the third reported case of Okamoto syndrome. Okamoto syndrome is a recently described distinctive multiple congenital anomaly syndrome encompassing the above features for which an etiologic factor has not yet been identified. Our patient also had idiopathic splenomegaly and non-specific MRI changes in the brain, not reported in the first two cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
