Reported cases[edit]

That figure of 36 reported cases quoted from the article by Kotetishvili et al refers to GLHS, not rhombencephalosynapsis. I'm not sure of the latest figures. Good to see a dedicated wiki page. Dazmcd (talk) 03:36, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dazmcd - my understanding was that rhomboencephalosynapsis was a feature of GLHS and so is included in the number of cases given. Do you know if this is a misunderstanding?

Thanks --Iztwoz (talk) 10:07, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, by definition (diagnostic criteria) those with GLHS also have rhombencephalosynapsis. Rhombencephalosynapsis itself is a separate condtiion and can occur without the extra features of GLHS though, so it not quite as rare, and likely under-recognised.
