[Care continuity for patients with Prader-Willi syndrome during transition from childhood to adulthood].
Nihon Rinsho. Japanese Journal of Clinical Medicine 2010 January
Prader-Willi syndrome(PWS) is a complex multisystem genetic disorder, of which characteristic phenotypes include neonatal hypotonia, hyperphagia resulting in obesity, mental retardation, hypogonadism, and behavioral and psychiatric problems. The diagnosis can be obtained as early as during neonatal period thanks to development of genetic testing. Clinical features of PWS will change depending on age, although core phenotypes of hyperphagia, obesity and psychiatric issues stay for lifetime. Therefore, integrated multidisciplinary approach starting from neonatal period is mandatory to ensure optimal management to improve lifelong quality of life. For successful transition from childhood to adulthood, multidisciplinary team need to share clinical information, and should keep the same policy about food, environment and psychiatric issues.
