Exploring 17q12 Deletion Syndrome: A Case Report of Neurodevelopmental, Endocrine, and Genital Anomalies.

Objective - 17q12 deletion syndrome is a rare genetic disease characterized by neurodevelopmental disorders, genital and renal abnormalities, and maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 5 (MODY5). Case Report - This case report details the case of a 13-year-old female with moderate intellectual disability, Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome, multicystic dysplastic kidneys, and MODY5. Genetic testing revealed a 1.52-megabase heterozygous deletion on chromosome 17q12, encompassing the HNF1B and LHX1 genes, which was found to be inherited from the mother. Conclusion - This case underscores the importance of early genetic testing and multidisciplinary approach in managing the multisystemic manifestations of 17q12 deletion syndrome. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial for improving the outcomes and quality of life for affected individuals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
