Joubert Syndrome 6; Jbts6

Description

Joubert syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder presenting with psychomotor delay, hypotonia, ataxia, oculomotor apraxia, and neonatal breathing abnormalities. Neuroradiologically, Joubert syndrome is characterized by peculiar malformation of the midbrain-hindbrain junction known as the 'molar tooth sign' (MTS) consisting of cerebellar vermis hypoplasia or aplasia, thick and maloriented superior cerebellar peduncles, and abnormally deep interpeduncular fossa (Romano et al., 2006).For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Joubert syndrome, see {213300}.
