    Introduction: Ivemark Syndrome is a rare congenital condition that affects multiple organs of the body; it is classified as a disorder of heterotaxiaor laterally disorder. It is characterized by anomalies of the spleen and other abdominal organs as well as malformations of the heart. Case report: a 15-month-old boy who underwent fetal echocardiography in the 28th week of his fetal development, in the left heart cavity an axis of more than 650 with increase of right cavities, at the aortic valve level a slight decrease in its caliber was observed. Diagnostic impressions are presented as inverse situs, interruption of inferior vena cava and continuation with azygos vein, aortic valvular stenosis and left isomerism. Cesarean delivery was performed at 39 weeks of pregnancy, weight 5080 gr, apgar scoring 9-9. In the abdominal ultrasound the spleen was not defined, the right kidney was malrotated observing also intestinal malrotation. Ivemark Syndrome was the definitive diagnosis. The infant is periodically monitored by a multidisciplinary medical team. Conclusions: at present, it is possible to formulate an early diagnosis of the cardinal signs that involve internal organs such as cardiovascular system, liver, and spleen during prenatal stage to confirm the Ivemark Syndrome, which contributes to the genetic counseling and the multidisciplinary approach in the neonatal stage, avoiding fatal complications and therefore to increase in quality and life expectancy.Introducci贸n: El S铆ndrome Ivemark es una rara condici贸n cong茅nita que afecta m煤ltiples 贸rganos del cuerpo, es clasificada como un desorden de heterotaxia o desorden de lateralidad.

    Introduction: Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease of autosomal recessive inheritance, characterized by dysfunction of the exocrine secretion glands.Case report: Male patient 2 years of age, at term (39 weeks). In the third trimester of pregnancy, polyhydramnios, dilated bowel loops and a possible low bowel atresia is not ruled out at that time. Rest of normal genetic tests. At the month of birth he enters due to malnutrition and liquid diarrhea. After 2 months, she re-entered due to respiratory manifestations, in the nutritional evaluation her height and weight was below the third percentile, she had skin-pale pallor, demonstrating anemia due to iron deficiency and light hair color. Given the prenatal history and the predominance of digestive and respiratory manifestations, it is decided to perform sweat electrolyte examination in 2 moments, which are negative. It is decided to conduct a molecular study for the detection of mutations that results: 螖F508del / R1162X (Heterozygous compound for cystic fibrosis). Dietary and vitamin therapy treatment is applied. He continues his attention in multidisciplinary consultations, Nutrition, Gastroenterology, Genetics and Pediatrics.Conclusions: The early diagnosis of cystic fibrosis is made by detecting the cardinal signs that involve the respiratory and digestive system; as well as family history. In the prenatal stage, the findings related to the increased amniotic fluid, the alteration of the fetal vesicle should be taken into account, which allows the definitive diagnosis to be made by studying the mutations.Introducci贸n: La fibrosis qu铆stica es una enfermedad gen茅tica de herencia autos贸mica recesiva, caracterizada por disfunci贸n de las gl谩ndulas de secreci贸n exocrina.Presentaci贸n del caso: Paciente masculino de 2 a帽os de edad, a t茅rmino (39 semanas). En el tercer trimestre del embarazo, se reporta por ultrasonido polihidramnios, asas intestinales dilatadas, ecorrefrigencia abdominal grado III, no descart谩ndose en esos momentos una posible atresia intestinal baja. Resto de ex谩menes gen茅ticos normales. Al mes de nacido ingresa por desnutrici贸n y diarreas liquidas. A los 2 meses reingresa por manifestaciones respiratorias, en la evaluaci贸n nutricional su peso para la talla se encontraba por debajo del tercer percentil, ten铆a palidez cut谩neomucosa, demostr谩ndose anemia por d茅ficit de hierro y coloraci贸n clara del pelo. Ante los antecedentes prenatales y el predominio de manifestaciones digestivas y respiratorias, se decide realizar examen de electrolitos en sudor en 2 momentos, los que resultan negativos. Se decide realizar estudio molecular para detecci贸n de mutaciones que resulta: 螖F508del/R1162X (Heterocigoto compuesto para la fibrosis qu铆stica). Se pone tratamiento diet茅tico y con vitaminoterapia. Contin煤a su atenci贸n en consultas multidisciplinarias, de Nutrici贸n, Gastroenterolog铆a, Gen茅tica y Pediatr铆a.Conclusiones: El diagn贸stico precoz de la fibrosis qu铆stica se realiza mediante la detecci贸n de los signos cardinales que involucran al sistema respiratorio y al digestivo; as铆 como los antecedentes familiares. En la etapa prenatal se deben tener en cuenta los hallazgos relacionados con el l铆quido amni贸tico aumentado, la ecorrefrigencia abdominal, la alteraci贸n de la ves铆cula fetal lo cual permite realizar el diagn贸stico definitivo mediante el estudio de las mutaciones

    Introduction: the sirenomelia sequence is a primary defect that occurs in the mesoderm of the posterior middle axis of the embryo and turns out the fusion of the primordium of limbs in its fibular margins, with absence or complete development of the intercurrent caudal structures.Case report: a 36-year-old pregnant woman with a reproductive history of three previous pregnancies and two deliveries without abortions, who in the genetic risk assessment consultation, classified as increased genetic risk (risk of chromosomal alterations). A history of possible exposure to teratogens was collected. Multiple congenital defects were observed in the study of the fetus by means of ultrasound. Genetic counseling and reproductive options are provided in multidisciplinary team office to both members of the couple. Both gave their consent for the interruption of pregnancy. The pathological study confirmed multiple congenital anomalies.Conclusions: major congenital anomalies, that are part of the sirenomelia sequence, can be diagnosed in the prenatal stage by means of Ultrasonography Studies during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. The definitive and classified diagnosis can be completed after the pathological study of the fetus.聽 Genetic counseling is improved and based on the consideration of the alterations in embryogenesis with its genetic and environmental aspects; where the concluding aspects are personalized considering the pregnant woman, her family, as well as her social and personal situation.Introducci贸n: la secuencia sirenomelia es un defecto primario que ocurre en mesodermo del eje medio posterior del embri贸n y produce la fusi贸n de los primordios de miembros en sus m谩rgenes fibulares, con ausencia o desarrollo completo de las estructuras caudales intercurrentes.Presentaci贸n de caso: gestante de 36 a帽os, con una historia reproductiva de tres gestaciones, dos partos y ning煤n aborto.

    Introduction: myotonic dystrophy type 1 is an autosomal dominant genetic disease with highly variable expressivity. Among the systemic alterations that are part of the clinical manifestations are neurodegeneration and premature aging, which is why it is part of progeroid syndromes. Objective: to describe progeroid dermatological manifestations in type 1 myotonic dystrophy. Clinical case: 44-year-old patient who, at the age of 9, confirmed a clinical diagnosis of myotonic dystrophy type 1. A family history with the same genetic disorder was collected. It presents dysmorphic signs in the skull, face, extremities and in different organs, among which are bilateral sensorineural deafness, early-onset cataracts, as well as dermatological manifestations such as seborrheic dermatitis and other lesions reminiscent of ichthyosis. Conclusions: DM1 is often referred to as a progeroid syndrome, which implies assuming that it exposes the usual underlying mechanisms of aging that are also those that participate in the pathogenesis of DM1 and in turn justify the dermatological manifestations observed.Introducci贸n: la distrofia miot贸nica tipo 1 es una enfermedad gen茅tica autos贸mica dominante con una gran expresividad variable. Entre las alteraciones sist茅micas que forman parte de las manifestaciones cl铆nicas est谩 la neurodegeneraci贸n y el envejecimiento prematuro, es por esto que forma parte de los s铆ndromes progeroides. Objetivo: describir manifestaciones dermatol贸gicas progeroides en la distrofia miot贸nica tipo1. Caso cl铆nico: paciente de 44 a帽os de edad que a la edad de 9 a帽os se confirma diagn贸stico cl铆nico de distrofia miot贸nica tipo 1. Se recoge antecedentes familiares con igual trastorno gen茅tico. Presenta signos dism贸rficos en cr谩neo, cara, extremidades y en diferentes 贸rganos, entre estos se destacan la sordera neurosensorial bilateral, cataratas de inicio precoz, as铆 como las manifestaciones dermatol贸gicas como la dermatitis seborreica y otras lesiones que recuerdan la ictiosis. Conclusiones: la Distrofia Miot贸nica tipo 1, suele referirse como un s铆ndrome progeroide, ello implica asumir que deja al descubierto los mecanismos subyacentes habituales del envejecimiento que tambi茅n son los que participan en la patog茅nesis de la enfermedad y a su vez justifican las manifestaciones dermatol贸gicas observadas
