Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Conditions:

Megalocephaly

Eligibility:

All Genders

Brief Summary

This study will show the value of early genetic diagnosis in the case of MEG in a child and may lead to recommendations aimed at preventing tumor risk based on a simple and easily accessible clinical ...

Detailed Description

During paediatric follow-up, head circumference (CP) measurement can detect severe macrocephaly (CP ≥ +3 SD) in 1% of the population, in individuals with or without neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD). ...

  • Patient with a proposal to investigate a genetic etiology by genome sequencing
  • No objection by the patient's parents or guardians
  • Patients affiliated to a social security scheme

Exclusion

  • Patients with an etiological diagnosis of its MEG
  • Patients who have previously undergone genetic testing as part of their MEG, with or without a diagnosis
