Abstract
Maternal 15q11.2-q13.1 duplication syndrome is associated with a variety of developmental and neuropsychiatric abnormalities. Although schizophrenia-like presentations have been reported, details pertaining to the nature of the corresponding psychotic symptoms and their response to treatment have only been described in a few cases, and no reviews summarizing the literature currently exist. As such, we describe a new case of 15q11.2-q13.1 duplication syndrome-associated schizoaffective disorder and also performed a systematic review of the literature. Our patient's presentation is somewhat unique as she experienced visual hallucinations in the absence of auditory hallucinations. This is also the first report to describe full symptomatic remission in response to relatively low-dose atypical antipsychotic therapy.
期刊介绍:
The journal aims to publish papers which bring together clinical observations, psychological and behavioural abnormalities and genetic data. All papers are fully refereed.
Psychiatric Genetics is also a forum for reporting new approaches to genetic research in psychiatry and neurology utilizing novel techniques or methodologies. Psychiatric Genetics publishes original Research Reports dealing with inherited factors involved in psychiatric and neurological disorders. This encompasses gene localization and chromosome markers, changes in neuronal gene expression related to psychiatric disease, linkage genetics analyses, family, twin and adoption studies, and genetically based animal models of neuropsychiatric disease. The journal covers areas such as molecular neurobiology and molecular genetics relevant to mental illness.
Reviews of the literature and Commentaries in areas of current interest will be considered for publication. Reviews and Commentaries in areas outside psychiatric genetics, but of interest and importance to Psychiatric Genetics, will also be considered.
Psychiatric Genetics also publishes Book Reviews, Brief Reports and Conference Reports.
