Management

Intellectual developmental disorder, autosomal recessive 27 is a genetic disorder and currently there is no permanent cure available. Hence, a multi-disciplinary team is recommended to address the symptoms.

This involves supportive care from a team of experienced specialists that periodically assess the existing disease manifestations and identify any new complications. Monitoring anxiety, attention and self-injurious behavior in these patients is also important. For anxiety issues and schizophrenia, antipsychotics and anxiolytics are prescribed.

Generally, few patients may experience episodes of seizures. In such instances, anti-epileptic drugs can be prescribed. However, it is important to monitor the seizure medication dosages depending on the frequency and extent of seizures in the patient.
