Specialty. Medical genetics. Distal 18q- is a genetic condition caused by a deletion of genetic material within one of the two copies of chromosome 18. [1] The deletion involves the distal section of 18q and typically extends to the tip of the long arm of chromosome 18. [2]
Angelman syndrome (AS) is a genetic disorder that mainly affects the nervous system. [6] Symptoms include a small head and a specific facial appearance, severe intellectual disability, developmental disability, limited to no functional speech, balance and movement problems, seizures, and sleep problems.

Proximal 18q-is a rare genetic condition caused by a deletion of genetic material within one of the two copies of chromosome 18. This deletion involves the proximal (near the centromere ) section of the long arm of chromosome 18 somewhere between 18q11.2 (18.9 Mb) to 18q21.1 (43.8 Mb). [1]
Signs and symptoms. Ring 18 causes a wide range of medical and developmental concerns. As discussed above, people with ring 18 can have features of both distal 18q-and 18p-. The features of distal 18q-and 18p-vary greatly because of the variability of the deletion size and breakpoint locations between people.
17q12 microdeletion syndrome. 17q12 microdeletion syndrome, also known as 17q12 deletion syndrome, is a rare chromosomal anomaly caused by the deletion of a small amount of material from a region in the long arm of chromosome 17. It is typified by deletion of the HNF1B gene, resulting in kidney abnormalities and renal cysts and diabetes syndrome.
18p-, also known as monosomy 18p, deletion 18p syndrome, del (18p) syndrome, partial monosomy 18p, or de Grouchy syndrome 1, is a genetic condition caused by a deletion of all or part of the short arm (the p arm) of chromosome 18. It occurs in about 1 of every 50,000 births. [1]
Smith–Magenis syndrome (SMS), also known as 17p- syndrome, is a microdeletion syndrome characterized by an abnormality in the short (p) arm of chromosome 17. It has features including intellectual disability, facial abnormalities, difficulty sleeping, and numerous behavioral problems such as self-harm. Smith–Magenis syndrome affects an ...
A perfect 10 pose for an (almost) perfect 10 wave goes viral. It was a celebration worthy of the ages — or at least viral fame. Surfer Gabriel Medina was taking on Kanoa Igarashi, the man who ...
