Dias Logan syndrome is a rare intellectual developmental disorder, characterized by delayed psychomotor development, impaired intellectual development, variable dysmorphic features, and asymptomatic persistence of fetal hemoglobin.[2] [3] [4]

Presentation

Dias Logan Syndrome can present as intellectual and physical developmental delays, including later-than-average walking and speaking. Certain craniofacial features are also associated with Dias Logan Syndrome, including strabismus, a thin upper or everted lower lip, external ear abnormalities, or microcephaly. The frequency and consistency of these craniofacial abnormalities across individuals with Dias Logan Syndrome remains to be studied. Joint hypermobility has also been observed.[5]

Cause

Dias Logan Syndrome is very similar to other intellectual and developmental disability disorders. It is specifically characterized by de novo mutations in the BCL11A gene.[citation needed]

Diagnosis

Genetic testing is necessary to identify the specific genetic mutation.[citation needed]

Treatment

In terms of management there is no cure for Dias-Logan syndrome. Treatment is supportive and depending on individuals specific symptoms.[citation needed]

Prognosis

Because of the similarity between this and other intellectual and developmental disorders, and due to the evolving understanding of the nature of the syndrome, a unique prognosis has not been defined.[citation needed]
