Hee Jung Chung, Young Rae Kim, Man Yong Han, Sook Hwan Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(3):417-422.   Published online March 15, 2000
The Prader-Willi syndrome(PWS) and Angelman syndrome(AS) are clinically distinct syndromes with a shared cytogenetic deletion of chromosome 15q11q13 in most patients. Currently the diagnosis of PWS/AS is clinically suspected and can be confirmed by genetic laboratory tests. However, their diagnosis remains difficult in neonates and early infants because many features of the syndromes change with age and the typical features...
