Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome

What it is

A rare multiple congenital anomalies syndrome characterized by tall stature due to postnatal overgrowth, mild to moderate intellectual disability, joint hypermobility and subtle distinctive facial features, which often become apparent during adolescence (such as round face, low-set, thick horizontal eyebrows, narrow palpebral fissures and prominent upper-central incisors). Overweight, hypotonia, behavioral and psychiatric problems are common. Other clinical features may involve seizures, cryptorchidism and cardiovascular diseases (including congenital heart disease and aortic root dilatation).

Malformation syndrome

Prevalence figures describe populations, not individuals, and are often estimates from a single study. Where the figure is an incidence or a birth prevalence, it says so.

Signs and symptoms

These ranges are how often a sign appears across everyone diagnosed, not a prediction for one person — most people have some of these and not others. Orphanet also records findings that are specifically absent in this disease; those are in the data but not listed here.

ICD-10 codes

ICD-10 has no distinct code for most rare diseases, so many are filed under the nearest available one. A shared code identifies the group, not this disease — the ORPHAcode above is what identifies it.

Reached through the ICD-10 categories this disease is filed under, so these describe the broader group rather than this disease specifically.
