VCF SYNDROME
SHPRINTZEN VCF SYNDROME
Gene Map Locus: 22q11
Shprintzen et al. (1981) reported on 39 patients with a syndrome characterized by the following frequent features: cleft palate, cardiac anomalies, typical facies, and learning disabilities. Less frequent features included microcephaly, mental retardation, short stature, slender hands and digits, minor auricular anomalies, and inguinal hernia. The Pierre Robin syndrome was present in 4. The heart malformation was most often ventricular septal defect …
Goldberg et al. (1993) reviewed the full spectrum of the velocardiofacial syndrome on the basis of 120 patients. Learning disability, cleft palate, and pharyngeal hypotonia were present in 90% or more of the patients; cardiac anomalies in 82%; slender hands and digits in 63%; medial displacement of internal carotid arteries in 25%; umbilical hernia in 23%; and hypospadias in 10% of males. Shprintzen et al. (1992) pointed out that psychotic illness is also a feature of VCFS in adolescents or adults …
The large clinical overlap between DiGeorge syndrome and velocardiofacial syndrome suggested an etiologic connection. DiGeorge syndrome is associated with microdeletions of chromosome 22q11 and is thought to be caused by reduced dosage of genes within this region, i.e., monosomy …
Nickel et al. (1994) reported 3 patients with meningomyelocele, congenital heart defects and 22q11 … Two of the children had the clinical diagnosis of VCFS; both also had bifid uvula. The third child had DiGeorge sequence.

Gene Map Locus: 22q11
... DiGeorge syndrome (DGS) comprises hypocalcemia arising from parathyroid hypoplasia, thymic hypoplasia, and outflow tract defects of the heart … Most cases result from a deletion of chromosome 22q11.2 … This deletion may present with a variety of phenotypes: Shprintzen syndrome (192430); conotruncal anomaly face (or Takao syndrome); and isolated outflow tract defects of the heart including tetralogy of Fallot, truncus arteriosus, and interrupted aortic arch. A collective acronym CATCH22 has been proposed for these differing presentations …
DiGeorge syndrome overlaps … Disorder described by the Japanese as "conotruncal anomaly face syndrome" … "68% of Shprintzen syndrome patients … have been recognized to have deletions of 22q11" … The term DiGeorge syndrome be reserved for those with neonatal presentation, particularly with thymic hypoplasia and hypocalcemia, and that the designation VCFS be used for … CATCH22 and … Acronym be taken to represent cardiac abnormality, T cell deficit, clefting, and hypocalcemia.
... DiGeorge syndrome is characterized by neonatal hypocalcemia, which may present as tetany or seizures, due to hypoplasia of the parathyroid glands, and susceptibility to infection due to a deficit of T cells. The immune deficit is caused by hypoplasia or aplasia of the thymus gland. A variety of cardiac malformations are seen in particular affecting the outflow tract. These include tetralogy of Fallot, type B interrupted aortic arch, truncus arteriosus, right aortic arch and aberrant right subclavian artery. In infancy, micrognathia may be present. The ears are typically low set and deficient in the vertical diameter with abnormal folding of the pinna. Telecanthus with short palpebral fissures is seen. Both upward and downward slanting eyes have been described. The philtrum is short and the mouth relatively small. In the older child the features overlap Shprintzen syndrome (velocardiofacial syndrome) with a rather bulbous nose and square nasal tip and hypernasal speech associated with submucous or overt palatal clefting. Cases presenting later tend to have a milder spectrum of cardiac defect with ventricular septal defect being common.
Short stature and variable mild to moderate learning difficulties are common. A variety of psychiatric disorders have been described in a small proportion of adult cases of velocardiofacial syndrome. These have included paranoid schizophrenia and major depressive illness. Clinical features seen more rarely include hypothyroidism, cleft lip, and deafness.
Goodship et al. (1995) described monozygotic twin brothers with precisely the same 22q11.2 deletion but somewhat discordant clinical phenotype …
DiGeorge syndrome is usually sporadic and results from de novo 22 deletion …
Other chromosome defects have been identified … There was 1 case of DGS with del10p13 and one with a 18q21.33 deletion … deletion of 4q21.3 - q25 associated with interrupted aortic arch, VSD, ASD, and PDA; T cell deficit and a small thymus at surgery …
The association of the DiGeorge syndrome with at least 2 and possibly more chromosomal locations suggests strongly that several genes are involved in control of migration of neural crest cells and their subsequent fixation and differentiation at different sites …
CLINICAL MANAGEMENT
Calcium supplements and 1,25 - cholecalciferol may be needed to treat hypocalcemia. Thymic transplantation has been employed though this is difficult to assess since children tend to improve with age …
HISTORY
The original description of the syndrome was derived from a published discussion at an immunology meeting (Cooper et al., 1965). DiGeorge (1968) published a formal report 3 years later. The report by Strong (1968) predated this formal report and probably represents the same variable disorder. Kimura (1977) reported velopharyngeal deficiency in a series of patients without cleft palate. The Japanese language report by Kinouchi et al. (1976) and the English reports, by Takao et al. (1980) and Shimizu et al. (1984), delineated the syndrome in the Japanese population. The acronym CATCH22 derives from the phrase Catch 22, which was used by Joseph Heller as the title of his book (Heller, 1962).

Velocardiofacial Syndrome ( VCFS ) (USA)
NIDCD Health Information, August 24, 2007
Visitor Comments [Support Groups]
Velocardiofacial syndrome ( VCFS ) is a disorder that has been associated with over thirty different features. (A disease or disorder that has more than one identifying feature or symptom is a syndrome.) The name velocardiofacial syndrome comes from the Latin words "velum" meaning palate, "cardia" meaning heart and "facies" having to do with the face. Not all of these identifying features are found in each child who is born with VCFS. The most common features are cleft palate (opening in the roof of the mouth), heart defects, characteristic facial appearance, minor learning problems and speech and feeding problems. Although VCFS is the most common syndrome associated with a cleft palate, it was not recognized until 1978, at which time Dr. Robert J. Shprintzen of the Center for Craniofacial Disorders at the Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, New York …
