Noonan syndrome can be inherited or can develop unpredictably in children whose parents have normal genes. Although children with the syndrome have normal chromosomal structure, they have many characteristics typical of Turner syndrome. In the past, Noonan syndrome was called "male Turner syndrome." Boys or girls can be affected. The gene responsible for Noonan syndrome has been localized to chromosome 12.

Commonwealth of Virginia Page Welcome to our Noonan Syndrome website. My name is Sue Walker, and this page has been designed as a site for the Virginia members of The Noonan Syndrome Support Group (TNSSG). In the future I hope to post Virginia news as well as announcements of upcoming Noonan-related events, both in Virginia and elsewhere. My son was born with Noonan Syndrome; however, he wasn't diagnosed until he was 14 years old. Because he is mildly affected, his many and varied physical and medical characteristics were not recognized as Noonan Syndrome until he was referred to an endocrinologist at age 14 due to delayed puberty. The endocrinologist made the diagnosis of Noonan Syndrome, but for the next five years we were almost as much in the dark as before the diagnosis, because we were given only limited information. In 1998, during a medical crisis, I began to search the Internet for resources and information, and I discovered The Noonan Syndrome Support Group, Inc. (TNSSG), an Internet-based, international support group for those whose lives are touched by Noonan Syndrome. Since that time, TNSSG has provided support, information, resources, and a new circle of friends and "family." The group has been a light in our darkest days, a safety net when we've been at the end of our rope, and a source of comfort and inspiration as we have come to know the members and hear the stories of the courageous individuals who live with Noonan Syndrome in a world where the most-often-heard comment is "...I've never heard it it!"

Noonan Syndrome (NS) is a relatively common congenital genetic condition which affects both males and females. The principal features include congenital heart malformation, short stature, learning problems, indentation of the chest, impaired blood cloting, and a characteristic configuration of facial features. NS is one of the most common conditions associated with congenital heart anomalies, especially those of the right heart. The syndrome is named after Dr Jacqueline Noonan, a paediatric cardiologist based in Kentucky. It is believed that 1 in 1,000 to 1 in 2,500 children worldwide are born with Noonan syndrome. It is one of the most common genetic syndromes associated with congenital heart malformations, similar in frequency to Down syndrome . However, the body features are much less obviously abnormal, and many if not most affected persons go undiagnosed. Contents Cause Manifestations by organ system By physical appearance Diagnosis ... edit Cause Recurrence in siblings and apparent transmission from parent to child has long suggested a genetic defect with autosomal dominant inheritance and variable expression. A clearly affected person had up to a 50% chance of transmitting it to a child. The fact that affected parents cannot be identified for many children with Noonan syndrome suggests that (1) a parent could carry the gene without being affected, (2) that manifestations were variably expressed and could be so subtle as to go unrecognized, (3) that a high proportion of cases represented new, sporadic

Noonan syndrome is a genetic disorder originally described by Noonan and Ehmke in 1963. The majority of early patients recognized to have this syndrome were boys, but it is now clear that girls are equally affected. Noonan syndrome occurs in about 1/1,000 to 1/2,500 live births. The actual genetic abnormality has not yet been discovered. Return to Top Noonan syndrome features found in infants Babies with Noonan syndrome may be diagnosed in infancy because of unusual facial features, including closely spaced and down-slanted eyes and ears that are positioned low on the head and rotated to the back. The vertical groove lying in the space between the upper lip and nose is deep and the jaw is small. There is excess neck skin and the hairline is low on the back of the neck.

It has recently been reported that approximately 50% of NS cases may be due to mutations in the PTPN11 gene that encodes the non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2. We currently offer genomic sequencing for exons 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 13. Testing these exons will identify greater than 95% of the mutations identified in PTPN11 in patients with Noonan Syndrome. Sequential testing is available. Analysis of exons 3, 8, and 13 will detect approximately 80% of PTPN11 mutations. Sequencing exons 2, 4, and 7 will detect an additional 15%. Specimen requirements : 5 to 10 ml of peripheral blood collected in an EDTA (lavender top) Vacutainer TM tube is preferred. The minimal blood needed for reliable DNA isolation is 3 ml.

Disorder Zone Archives Noonan Syndrome Alex Bleyhl Introduction Noonan syndrome (NS) is a genetic disorder characterized by distinct facial characteristics, short stature, and congenital cardiac defects. NS is believed to occur in 1 out of every 1,000 live births and it affects both males and females equally. NS can be hereditary and is considered autosomal dominant, where the affected gene only needs to be passed on by one parent. A parent with the defective gene has a 50% chance of passing it on to his or her child. Frequently, however, NS can be a sporadic syndrome (or caused by a new mutation), affecting only one family member. Women appear to pass on the gene three times more often than men. NS was first described in 1963 by a pediatric cardiologist named Jacqueline Noonan. Dr. Noonan recognized that an unusual heart defect (valvular pulmonary stenosis) was sometimes accompanied by short stature and a characteristic physical appearance with a webbed neck, wide-spaced eyes, and low-set ears. Features and Characteristics There are many characteristics associated with NS. Not every child has all the characteristics, however, the following is a list of traits that have been reported:
