ABSTRACT
Introduction: Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare genetic condition characterized
by multiple congenital malformations, neurodevelopmental delay, short stature, characteristic
facial dysmorphism, congenital heart disease, and skeletal abnormalities. A
frequency of 1 in 32,000 live births is estimated.
Objective: The propose of the study is to see the frequency of presentation of
heart disease and the type of heart disease that occurs more frequently in patients
with KS.
Materials and Methods:A retrospective, cross-sectional and observational
review of the last 10 years of the records was carried out, where age, gender, clinical
and cardiological characteristics, treatment and evolution were reviewed. Descriptive
statistics were performed, using simple and median frequencies in the continuous
variables.
Results: Thirteen patients were found with clinical manifestations of Kabuki syndrome.
The main clinical features were facial dysmorphias, skeletal abnormalities,
and abnormal hands. Thirty percent had heart disease, the most frequent being atrial
and interventricular septal defects. Two were given medical treatment and the other
two were given surgical treatment. There were no patients with aortic coarctation and
or aortic dilatation in our study, although our sample was very small. To date, they all
live with the Ross I classification, with a follow-up of 3 to 10 years.
Conclusions: It is recommended as soon as the diagnosis of Kabuki syndrome is
made, to carry out a cardiological evaluation. The prognosis requires clinical etiological
follow-up with annual visual and auditory monitoring and genetic counseling.
