Mild Intellectual Deficits in a Child with 49,XXXXY.

Hersh, Joseph H.; And Others

Research in Developmental Disabilities, v9 n2 p171-76 1988

Although most males with a 49,XXXXY karyotype will have significant mental retardation, the case of an affected boy having mild-cognitive and motor delays and age-appropriate adaptive skills at 59 months is presented. Guarded optimism may be justified in affected males demonstrating close to or age-appropriate developmental skills through early childhood. (Author/VW)
