摘要


DiGeorge氏症候群爲一罕見疾病,其特色爲胸腺、副甲狀腺發育不良,動脈錐異常及英武的外觀異常,而動脈幹畸形亦爲少見之先天性心臓病,兩者皆常合併染色體22q11缺失。我們報告一個DiGeorge氏症候群合併動脈幹畸形,並且以熒光原位融合法(FISH)發現染色體22q11缺失。病人於出生時發現有心雜音合併呼吸窘迫,胸部X光顯示心臓肥大,但不見胸腺陰影,血液檢查發現淋巴球低下及低血鈣,心臓超音波及心導管顯示爲動脈幹畸形。免疫學及內分泌檢查確認T細胞免疫力低下及副甲狀腺素缺乏。淋巴球於五天大時即上昇至正常範圍,血鈣經補充後亦爲正常。染色體以FISH方式偵測出22q11缺失。病童於三個月大時接受動脈幹手術矯正,術後已漸漸康複並且拔除呼吸器,但不預期的心跳停止造成腦列,並於四個月大時死亡。

並列摘要


DiGeorge syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by a spectrum of thymic and parathyroid gland abnormalities, conotruncal cardiac defects, and typical facial dysmorphism. We report a male infant with partial DiGeorge syndrome characterized by truncus arteriosus, typical facial dysmorphism, hypocalcemia, lymphocytopenia with T-cell deficiency, and chromosome 22q11.2 deletion. Transient lymphocytopenia was noted for 5 days after birth and hypocalcemia was corrected with calcium gluconate administration. Surgical correction of the truncus arteriosus was performed at the age of 3 months. Unfortunately, the patient subsequently had an unwitnessed cardiac arrest, and despite resuscitation, died at the age of 4 months.
