Noonan syndrome is the second most common syndromic cause of congenital heart disease. 50-70% of individuals with NS are born with some form of congenital heart defect, with pulmonary valvular stenosis being the most common (50–60%). [9]
Jacqueline Anne Noonan (October 28, 1928 – July 23, 2020) was an American pediatric cardiologist best known for her characterization of a genetic disorder now called Noonan syndrome. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] She was also the original describer of hypoplastic left heart syndrome .
Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (NSML) which is part of a group called Ras/MAPK pathway syndromes, [2] is a rare autosomal dominant, [3] multisystem disease caused by a mutation in the protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 11 gene . The disease is a complex of features, mostly involving the skin, skeletal and cardiovascular ...
Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (NSML), formerly called LEOPARD syndrome SYNGAP1-related intellectual disability Somatic mutations in the Ras/MAPK pathway can cause cancers and disorders such as RAS-associated autoimmune leukoproliferative disorder (RALD) or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML).
The following is a list of genetic disorders and if known, type of mutation and for the chromosome involved. Although the parlance "disease-causing gene" is common, it is the occurrence of an abnormality in the parents that causes the impairment to develop within the child. There are over 6,000 known genetic disorders in humans.

Somatic cells are more commonly used for genetic analysis because they are easier to obtain than gametes. If the disease is a result of pure germline mosaicism, then the disease causing mutant allele would never be present in the somatic cells. This is a source of uncertainty for genetic counselling. An individual may still be a carrier for a ...
Noonan syndrome is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder characterized by a wide phenotypic spectrum including distinctive facial dysmorphism, postnatal growth retardation, short stature, ectodermal and skeletal defects, congenital heart anomalies, renal anomalies, lymphatic malformations, bleeding difficulties and variable cognitive deficits.
