Sammanfattning

KBG syndrome is a rare condition characterised by macrodontia of the upper central incisors, distinctive craniofacial findings, short stature, skeletal anomalies, and neurologic involvement including global developmental delay, seizures, and intellectual disability. This is a case report of a seven-year-old boy, who presented with symptoms fulfilling the diagnostic criteria of KBG syndrome, molecularly confirmed by detection of a heterozygous mutation in ANKRD11. To our knowledge, this is the first patient diagnosed with KBG syndrome in Denmark. The aim of this study is to raise awareness of this recognisable syndrome.
