As a hemizygous deletion of chromosome 22q11.2 occurs, various clinical phenotypes are shown with a broad spectrum. Conotruncal cardiac anomalies, hypoplastic thymus, and hypocalcemia are the classic triad of DiGeorge syndrome.

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(3):383-389.   Published online March 15, 2002
We experienced a case of partial DiGeorge syndrome in a 35＋5 week premature female infant presented with micrognathia, fish-shaped mouth, beaked nose, nasal regurgitation, obstructive sleep apnea, velopharyngeal insufficiency and late onset hypocalcemic seizures. The chromosome 22q11 microdeletion was found by the FISH method. The lab findings showed serum calcium level of 4.4 mg/dL, ionized calcium level of 0.49 mg/dL,...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(3):390-395.   Published online March 15, 1998
We experienced a case of DiGeorge syndrome in a 25-day-old male infant presented with micrognathia, short neck, fish-shaped mouth and intractable seizures with a loading dose of phenobarbital & dilantin. The serum calcium level was 3.7mg/dl, ionized calcium level was 0.62mmol/L, and parathyroid hormone carboxy-terminal level was 0.01ng/ml. We treated with it calcium gluconate infusion, low phosphorous formula milk feeding, and...
