This website provides information on patients with mutations in the RTTN gene, including clinical data, molecular data, management and research options.
The syndrome caused by mutations in the RTTN gene is a multisystem disorder characterized by primary microcephaly, primordial dwarfism, microcephaly-related facial dysmorphism, lissencephaly, polymicrogyria, and other congenital abnormalities.
Not all individuals with a mutation in the RTTN gene have these features.
This website was created to share and collect information about clinic, management and research projects to gather more knowledge and provide better treatment of patients with mutations in the RTTN gene.
