1. Impaired acuity of the approximate number system in 22q11.2 microdeletion syndrome
A magnitude comparison deficit has been frequently observed in velocardiofacial syndrome (Del22q11.2). We hypothesized that this deficit extends to impairments in the acuity of the approximate number system (ANS). Three groups of children aged 8-14 years were investigated: Del22q11.2 children (n = 12), low cognitive ability children (LCA; n = 12), and matche

2. Função velofaríngea em indivíduos com e sem sinais clínicos da síndrome velocardiofacial: análise videofluoroscópica / Velopharyngeal function in individuals with and without clinical signs of velocardiofacial syndrome: a videofluoroscopic analysis
Objetivos: estudar indivíduos com (G1) e sem (G2) sinais da Síndrome Velocardiofacial (SVCF) para verificar diferenças entre eles quanto à extensão e espessura velar, profundidade nasofaríngea, razão entre profundidade nasofaríngea e extensão velar (PNF/EV), tamanho da falha velofaríngea, ângulo velar, movimento do véu palatino e das paredes late

3. Investigação laboratorial da síndrome velocardiofacial e possíveis fenocópias / Laboratory investigations of the velocardiofacial syndrome and phenocopies possible
A Síndrome Velocardiofacial (SVCF), uma das formas do espectro da Síndrome de deleção 22q11.2, possui incidência de 1/4.000 a 1/6.000 nascimentos. Embora a microdeleção em 22q11.2 seja a principal causa da síndrome, cerca de 10 a 20% dos pacientes com características clínicas da SVCF não a apresentam. Em alguns indivíduos com características cli

4. Síndrome de deleção 22q11.2 e cardiopatias congênitas
OBJETIVO: Revisar as características clínicas, etiológicas e diagnósticas da síndrome de deleção 22q11 e sua associação com as cardiopatias congênitas. FONTES DOS DADOS: Foram pesquisados artigos científicos presentes nos portais Medline, Lilacs e SciELO, utilizando-se descritores específicos como "22q11", "DiGeorge syndrome", "velocardiofacial s

5. DiGeorge Syndrome: a not so rare disease
INTRODUCTION: The DiGeorge Syndrome was first described in 1968 as a primary immunodeficiency resulting from the abnormal development of the third and fourth pharyngeal pouches during embryonic life. It is characterized by hypocalcemia due to hypoparathyroidism, heart defects, and thymic hypoplasia or aplasia. Its incidence is 1:3000 live births and, despite

6. Avaliação da atenção e memória operacional fonológica em indivíduos com síndrome velocardiofacial / Abilities of attention and phonological working memory in individuals with Velocardiofacial syndrome
Velocardiofacial syndrome ( VCFS) is a disorder presenting multiple congenital anomalies and the major one are cleft palate and/or velopharyngeal dysfunction, cardiac malformations, facial dysmorphism, learning disability including visual-motor ability, abstract and mathematical reasoning. Speech and language disorders are among the most common VCFS clinical

7. Tooth abnormalities, soft tissue changes and craniofacial morphology in patients with velocardiofacial syndrome and G/BBB syndrome / Disgenesias dentárias, alterações de tecido mole e morfologia craniofacial em pacientes com síndrome velocardiofacial e síndrome G/BBB
This study investigated the prevalence of tooth abnormalities, soft tissue changes and cephalometric analysis in patients with velocardiofacial syndrome and G/BBB syndrome. The presence of tooth abnormalities was evaluated in patients older than six years; cephalometric analysis was conducted on lateral cephalograms obtained before any orthodontic interventi

8. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) screening for the 22q11.2 deletion in patients with clinical features of velocardiofacial syndrome but without cardiac anomalies
The velocardiofacial syndrome (VCFS), a condition associated with 22q11.2 deletions, is characterized by a typical facies, palatal anomalies, learning disabilities, behavioral disturbances and cardiac defects. We investigated the frequency of these chromosomal deletions in 16 individuals with VCFS features who presented no cardiac anomalies, one of the main

9. Cerebellar atrophy in a patient with velocardiofacial syndrome.
Velocardiofacial syndrome and DiGeorge syndrome have not previously been associated with central nervous system degeneration. We report a 34 year old man who presented for neurological evaluation with cerebellar atrophy of unknown aetiology. On historical review, he had neonatal hypocalcaemia, an atrial septal defect, and a corrected cleft palate. His physic

10. Velocardiofacial (Shprintzen) syndrome: an important syndrome for the dysmorphologist to recognise.
We report the dysmorphological, genetic, and speech therapy aspects of 38 cases of velocardiofacial syndrome presenting to a craniofacial clinic and a specialised children's hospital, to indicate a relatively low incidence of clefting, good response to pharyngoplasty, considerable variability of the syndrome, and two further familial cases. We emphasise the

11. Anal anomalies: an uncommon feature of velocardiofacial (Shprintzen) syndrome?
We report three cases of velocardiofacial syndrome (VCFS) with anal anomalies who have deletions of the 22q11 region and a further case where the proband has VCFS clinically and her father has an anal anomaly. It is important to consider VCFS in the differential diagnosis of children with anal anomalies and to look for other features of the syndrome, such as

12. Velocardiofacial syndrome in a mother and daughter: variability of the clinical phenotype.
We report a mother and daughter with features of the velocardiofacial (VCF) syndrome and monosomy for 22q11 identified using molecular techniques. The mother had surgery as a child for a cleft palate and a congenital heart defect, and her facial features were consistent with the diagnosis. The daughter had developmental delay, absent speech, scoliosis, and s
