A 2007 study followed 112 individuals for a mean of 12 years (mean age 25.3, range 12–71). No patient died during follow-up, but several required medical interventions. The mean final heights were 167 and 153 cm for men and women, respectively, which is approximately 2 standard deviations below normal.

First trimester ultrasound of noonan syndrome reveals nuchal oedema / cystic hygroma almost same as seen in Turner syndrome. Follow up scans may shows clinical features that already described above.

A study shows this disease is also associated with hepato splenomegaly with renal anomalies including malrotation and solitary kidney. A rare incidence of choledochal cyst is also reported as well.

The diagnosis is usually based on clinical features present at birth.

Ultrasound in the second trimester may show abnormalities associates with NLS, including polyhydramnios, intrauterine growth restriction, microcephaly, proptosis and decreased fetal motility.

The prognosis is poor; affected individuals are either stillborn or die shortly after birth. The longest survival reported in literature is of 134 days.

This syndrome is transmitted as an autosomal recessive disorder and there is a risk for recurrence of 25% in future pregnancies.

McLeod syndrome is one of only a few disorders in which acanthocytes may be found on the peripheral blood smear. Blood evaluation may show signs of hemolytic anemia. Elevated creatine kinase can be seen with myopathy in McLeod syndrome.

A typical patient with severe McLeod syndrome that begins in adulthood lives for an additional 5 to 10 years. Patients with cardiomyopathy have elevated risk for congestive heart failure and sudden cardiac death. The prognosis for a normal life span is often good in some patients with mild neurological or cardiac sequelae.

Microlissencephaly can be diagnosed by prenatal MRI. MRI is better than ultrasound when it comes to detecting microlissencephaly or MSGP prenatally.

The ideal time for proper prenatal diagnosis is between the 34th and 35th gestational week which is the time when the secondary gyration normally terminates. In microlissencephaly cases, the primary sulci would be unusually wide and flat while secondary sulci would be missing.

At birth, lissencephaly with a head circumference of less than minus three standard deviations (< –3 SD) is considered microlissencephaly.

Although genetic diagnosis in patients with MLIS is challenging, exome sequencing has been suggested to be a powerful diagnostic tool.

There is no cure for this syndrome. Treatment is supportive and symptomatic. All children with Mowat–Wilson syndrome required early intervention with speech therapy, occupational therapy and physical therapy.

Microlissencephaly is considered a more severe form than microcephaly with simplified gyral pattern. Microlissencephaly is characterized by a smooth cortical surface (absent sulci and gyri) with a thickened cortex (> 3 mm) and is usually associated with other congenital anomalies. Microcephaly with a simplified gyral pattern has too few sulci and normal cortical thickness (3 mm) and is usually an isolated anomaly.

The features of this condition include

- Facial dysmorphism

- Short stature

- Mild motor control and learning difficulties

- Mild ataxia

- Microcephaly

- Normal intelligence

- Conjunctival telangiectasia

- Recurrent sinus infections

- Decreased serum IgA

- Late onset of pulmonary fibrosis

- Increased alpha-fetoprotein

- Increased radiosensitivity

This condition is rare. Only four cases have been described up to 2017.

There is no known cure for microcephaly. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive.

Mirhosseini–Holmes–Walton syndrome is a syndrome which involves retinal degeneration, cataract, microcephaly, and mental retardation. It was first characterized in 1972.

There is evidence that this syndrome has a different mutation in the same gene as Cohen syndrome.

Fetal trimethadione syndrome (also known as paramethadione syndrome, German syndrome, tridione syndrome, among others) is a set of birth defects caused by the administration of the anticonvulsants trimethadione (also known as Tridione) or paramethadione to epileptic mothers during pregnancy.

Fetal trimethadione syndrome is classified as a rare disease by the National Institute of Health's Office of Rare Diseases, meaning it affects less than 200,000 individuals in the United States.

The fetal loss rate while using trimethadione has been reported to be as high as 87%.

Researchers are also investigating the genetic similarities between Dubowitz Syndrome and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS). Patients with SLOS and Dubowitz syndromes experience many of the same abnormalities, and the two disorders are hypothesized to be linked. A characteristic of SLOS is a low cholesterol level and a high 7-dehydrocholesterol level. Cholesterol is essential for several key functions of the body, including cell membrane structure, embryogenesis, and steroid and sex hormone synthesis. Impaired cholesterol biosynthesis or transport possibly accounts for most of the symptoms of both SLOS and Dubowitz. Although only a few patients with Dubowitz Syndrome have been identified with altered cholesterol levels, researchers are exploring whether Dubowitz Syndrome, like SLOS, carries a link to a defect in the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway.

The exact biochemical pathology of the disease is still under research because of the low prevalence of the disease and the wide array of symptoms associated with it. Several studies have focused on different aspects of the disease to try to find its exact cause and expression. One study examined the specific oral features in one patient. Another found abnormalities in the brain, such as corpus callosum dysgenesis, an underdeveloped anterior pituitary and a brain stalk with an ectopic neurohypophysis.

Fetal trimethadione syndrome is characterized by the following major symptoms as a result of the teratogenic characteristics of trimethadione.

- Cranial and facial abnormalities which include; microcephaly, midfacial flattening, V-shaped eyebrows and a short nose

- Cardiovascular abnormalities

- Absent kidney and ureter

- Meningocele, a birth defect of the spine

- Omphalocele, a birth defect where portions of the abdominal contents project into the umbilical cord

- A in mental and physical development

The diagnosis is based on the following clinical findings:

- microcephaly

- clinodactyly and shortness of index and little fingers

- syndactyly of 2nd & 3rd and 4th & 5th toe

- short palpebral fissures

- esophageal and/or duodenal atresia

Although 1p36 Deletion Syndrome can be debilitating in many ways, patients do respond to various treatments and therapies. These include the following:

American Sign Language: Because few individuals with Monosomy 1p36 develop complex speech, an alternate form of communication is critical to development. Most patients can learn basic signs to communicate their needs and wants. This also appears to reduce frustration and may reduce self-injurious tendencies. Children with hearing loss will often qualify for locally sponsored sign language classes.

Music Therapy: Music has been shown to aid children with 1p36 deletion in various developmental areas. It serves as an excellent auditory stimulus and can teach listening skills. Songs with actions help the child to develop coordination and motor skills.

Physical Therapy: Due to low muscle tone, patients with 1p36 Deletions take a great deal of time to learn to roll over, sit up, crawl and walk. However, regular physical therapy has shown to shorten the length of time needed to achieve each of those developmental milestones.

Occupational Therapy can be helpful to help children with oral motor and feeding difficulties (including dysphagia and transitioning to solid foods) as well as developmental delays in motor, social and sensory domains.

Symptoms for the disease include microcephaly, a low birth weight, dwarfism, small teeth, and diabetes. The symptoms of Stimmler syndrome are closely related to a disease studied by Haworth et al. in 1967 as well as Leigh subacute necrotizing encephalopathy with lactic acidosis

Stimmler syndrome is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder whose symptoms appear before birth or during infancy. In a study of two sisters born within a year of each other, both with Stimmler syndrome, it was found that high levels of alanine, pyruvate, and lactate were present in both the blood and urine. It was believed that the alanine was derived from the pyruvate.

Al-Raqad syndrome (ARS) is a congenital autosomal recessive syndrome discovered by Jordanian physician Mohammad Al-Raqad.

It's characterized by:

- microcephaly

- growth delay

- Psycho-motor developmental delay

- congenital hypotonia.

Al-Raqad syndrome is caused by mutation of DCPS gene.

The following should be taken into account when pronouncing a diagnosis for this condition:

This autosomal dominant disorder is characterized by a number of health defects including Hirschsprung's disease, intellectual disability, epilepsy, delayed growth and motor development, congenital heart disease, genitourinary anomalies and absence of the corpus callosum. However, Hirschsprung's disease is not present in all infants with Mowat–Wilson syndrome and therefore it is not a required diagnostic criterion. Distinctive physical features include microcephaly, narrow chin, cupped ears with uplifted lobes with central depression, deep and widely set eyes, open mouth, wide nasal bridge and a shortened philtrum.

Bangstad syndrome is a severe, inherited congenital disorder associated with abnormalities of the cell membrane.

It was characterized in 1989.

Halal syndrome is a rare disorder characterised by microcephaly, cleft palate, and variable other anomalies.
