[cohen syndrome]
The
recognizable
patterns
of
human
malformations
have
recently
received
much
attention
,
particularly
because
of
the
decline
of
other
diseases
.
Patients
with
a
congenital
malformation
syndrome
come
to
the
Child
Neuropsychiatrist
for
various
reasons
,
such
as
:
mental
retardation
of
variable
degree
,
learning
disabilities
,
speech
delay
or
absence
of
speech
,
behaviour
disorders
,
various
neurological
impairment
.
Parents
,
however
,
seem
to
be
mainly
concerned
about
the
prognosis
of
cognitive
and
psychological
aspects
.
We
have
studied
83
patients
with
a
specific
pattern
of
malformations
(
35
affected
by
the
Sotos
syndrome
;
25
by
the
Williams
syndrome
;
9
by
the
Cohen
syndrome
;
8
by
the
Cornelia
De
Lange
syndrome
;
6
by
the
Rubinstein-
Taybi
syndrome
)
and
have
particularly
investigated
their
cognitive
and
psychological
profiles
.
13
/
83
showed
a
normal
cognitive
level
(
9
Sotos
syndrome
;
4
Williams
syndrome
)
,
while
70
/
83
showed
a
cognitive
deficit
ranging
from
mild
-
moderate
(
56
cases
)
to
moderate
-
severe
(
14
cases
)
.
Linguistic
deficits
are
prominent
in
the
Sotos
,
Cornelia
De
Lange
,
and
Rubinstein-
Taybi
patients
,
while
practo-gnosic
deficits
are
frequent
in
the
Williams
and
particularly
in
the
Cohen
syndrome
patients
.
The
personality
structure
is
characterized
by
immaturity
and
anxiety
in
all
but
the
Williams
syndrome
patients
,
where
some
peculiar
neurotic
traits
may
be
observed
.
All
patients
showed
good
communicative
abilities
.
