Article information

El síndrome de Jacobsen es una cromosomopatía infrecuente, causada por una deleción terminal del brazo largo del cromosoma 11. Los principales rasgos clínicos son el retraso psicomotor y del crecimiento, trigonocefalia y dismorfia facial característica, pero existen muchas alteraciones asociadas.

Presentamos el caso de un neonato pretérmino con sospecha ecográfica prenatal de atresia duodenal. Al nacimiento presentaba rasgos craneofaciales típicos del síndrome de Jacobsen, equimosis y petequias generalizadas y pies zambos. En el hemograma se objetivó pancitopenia. La ecografía abdominal mostró agenesia renal izquierda y confirmó la atresia duodenal. La tomografía computarizada (TC) cerebral y el electroencefalograma (EEG) fueron normales, así como el estudio cardiológico. En la intervención quirúrgica de la atresia duodenal se observó la presencia de un páncreas anular. El cariotipo fue 46,XY,del(11)(q23.2 ® qter), con lo cual se confirmó el diagnóstico de síndrome de Jacobsen.

Los distintos rasgos clínicos asociados al síndrome de Jacobsen se relacionan con el fragmento cromosómico delecionado. Nuestro paciente presenta atresia duodenal con páncreas anular, manifestación no descrita previamente en la bibliografía.

Jacobsen syndrome is a rare chromosomal disorder due to terminal 11q deletion. Prominent features are growth and psychomotor retardation, trigonocephaly and a characteristic facial dysmorphism, but many different abnormalities have been reported.

We present the case of a preterm male. Prenatal ultrasonography was suspicious for duodenal atresia. At birth, the boy presented the craniofacial features typical of Jacobsen syndrome, together with diffusely spread petechiae and talipes equinovarus. Hemogram revealed pancytopenia. Ultrasound examination showed left renal agenesis and confirmed the duodenal atresia. Cerebral computed tomography scan, electroencephalogram and cardiac studies showed no abnormalities. Annular pancreas was found during surgery to correct the duodenal atresia. The karyotype was 46,XY,del(11)(q23.2 → qter), which confirmed Jacobsen syndrome.

A wide spectrum of clinical features is described in Jacobsen syndrome, with phenotype-karyotype correlation. This is the first report of duodenal atresia and annular pancreas.
