Spectrum of Congenital Malformations in Sex Chromosome Tetrasomies and Pentasomies: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sex chromosome aneuploidies represent a heterogeneous group of chromosomal conditions, in which phenotypic complexity generally increases with the number of supernumerary sex chromosomes. While Turner syndrome and sex chromosome trisomies are relatively well characterized, less is known about congenital malformations in sex chromosome ...

Clinical and Genetic Profile of One Molecularly Confirmed and One Clinically Suspected Case of LZTR1 ‐Related Noonan Syndrome

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 4, Page 502-507, October 2026.
This study illustrates the phenotypic variability of LZTR1‐related Noonan syndrome type 10 in two pediatric patients, including presentations without congenital heart defects. The findings emphasize the importance of whole‐exome sequencing and longitudinal re‐evaluation of variants of uncertain significance in achieving accurate diagnosis.

A 12‐Year‐Old Child With a Sunken Sternum and Progressive Muscle Weakness: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT A 12‐year‐old girl with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy and severe pectus excavatum presented with progressive dyspnea and restrictive ventilatory impairment. She underwent successful Nuss repair with uneventful recovery. At 6‐month follow‐up, chest contour and pulmonary function improved, suggesting that surgical correction is feasible
