Background: Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder, which remains a clinical diagnosis. The Netchine-Harbison clinical scoring system (NH-CSS), recently adopted by the first international consensus on SRS, defines SRS with at least 4 of the 6 following criteria: born SGA, postnatal growth retardation, relative macrocephaly at birth, prominent forehead, body asymmetry and early feeding difficulties. It is related to 11p15 ICR1 loss ...

Background: Silver-Russell syndrome (SRS) (mainly secondary to 11p15 molecular disruption) and Temple syndrome (TS) (secondary to 14q32.2 molecular disruption) are imprinting disorders with very close phenotypic (prenatal and postnatal growth retardation, early feeding difficulties, early puberty) and molecular anomalies. Our objective was to describe the clinical overlap between SRS and TS and to extensively study the molecular aspects of patients with 14q32.2 molecular disru...
