A rare genetic syndrome with characteristics of developmental delay and mild to moderate intellectual disability. Verbal language acquisition is usually delayed, with restricted language. The congenital heart defects are present in 41% of individuals, the most frequent being interatrial communication and interventricular communication. The syndrome is caused by heterozygous, usually de novo pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in the CDK13 gene (7p14.1), coding for a protein which regulates transcription. Transmission is autosomal dominant however, in most situations, the pathogenic variants arise de novo, and thus, the risk of sibling recurrence is low. |

Deletion 5q35 refers to the different congenital malformation syndromes resulting from deletions of variable extent of the terminal part of the long arm of chromosome 5 (5q), spanning the region from 5q35.1 to 5q35.3. The most significant anomaly is a recurring deletion in 5q35.2 comprising the NSD1 gene that causes Sotos syndrome that is characterized by cardinal features including excessive growth during childhood, macrocephaly, distinctive facial gestalt and various degrees of learning difficulty. Subtelomeric deletions of the terminal 3.5 Mb region on 5q35.3 are very rare, characterized by prenatal lymphedema with increased nuchal translucency, pronounced muscular hypotonia in infancy, borderline intelligence, postnatal short stature due to growth hormone deficiency, and a variety of minor anomalies such as mildly bell-shaped chest, minor congenital heart defects and a distinct facial gestalt. Larger deletions including bands 5q35.1, 5q35.2 and 5q35.3 cause a more severe phenotype that associates severe developmental delay with microcephaly, and significant cardiac defects (e.g. atrial septal defect with/without atrioventricular conduction defects, Ebstein anomaly, tetralogy of Fallot) linked to haploinsufficiency of NKX2.5 (5q35.1). Various combinations of signs may result from deletions of variable extent depending on the genes comprised in the deleted segment. |

A rare pulmonary neuroendocrine tumor, most often presenting in women over 50 years and non-smokers, characterized by long-lasting cough (>10 years), and less frequently by dyspnea or wheezing. A proportion of patients are asymptomatic, the disease being an incidental finding during routine check-ups. Diffuse pulmonary nodules and mosaic attenuation can be detected by CT-scan however only histopathology can confirm the diagnosis detecting a multifocal hyperplasia of pulmonary neuroendocrine cells (carcinoid tumorlets). Ventilatory dysfunction can be obstructive and less often restrictive, mixed or non-specific. Symptoms can progress slowly but sometimes lead to respiratory failure. It is considered as a precursor for pulmonary carcinoid tumor. |

Ketamine-induced biliary dilatation is an acquired biliary tract disease caused by the abusive consumption of ketamine, which results in the fusiform dilatation of the common bile ducts (CBD) without obstructive lesions or dilatation of the intrahepatic biliary ducts. Possible manifestations of the underlying cholangiopathy include epigastric pain and impaired liver function. Severity of CBD dilatation appears to correlate with the duration of ketamine consumption and the condition has been reported to be reversible in abstinent patients. |
