Presentation and Treatment of a Patient With Jacobs Syndrome and Metopic Craniosynostosis

Jacobs syndrome is a rare trisomy (47, XYY) found in ~1 in 1000 male children associated with infertility, autism spectrum disorders, macrocephaly, hypertelorism, tall stature, and macroorchidism. Diagnosis is often delayed due to relatively subtle phenotypic changes. Craniosynostosis, a fusion of the cranial sutures, has been described in ~1 in 2000 live births, of which 25% are related to a diagnosed syndrome with the most common being Apert and Crouzon. Craniosynostosis does not have a known association with Jacobs syndrome and no prior cases have been reported. This case report seeks to describe the presentation and treatment of a patient with Jacobs syndrome and metopic craniosynostosis.
