Overview

Angelman syndrome, formerly known as "happy puppet syndrome", is a genetic disorder characterized by intelectual and development delay, seizures, puppet-like movement, unprovoked laughter/smiling, and excessive socialization with strangers.


Historical Perspective

"I happened to see an oil painting...called... "a Boy with a Puppet". The boy's laughing face and the fact that my patients exhibited jerky movements gave me the idea of writing an article about the three children with a title of Puppet Children."[1]

Clinical Features

Angelman syndrome is characterized by:

Differentiating Angelman syndrome from Other Diseases

Angelman syndrome must be differentiated from other diseases that cause intelectual and development delay, dysmorphic facies, and seizures, such as:

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • The prevalence of Angelman syndrome is approximately 5-7 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[18]
  • The exact incidence of Angelman syndrome is unknown, but its estimated to be between 6-7 per 100,000 births .[19]

Age

Full spectrum of the disease appears usually before 3 years of age.[20]

Gender

Angelman syndrome affects men and women equally.[18][21]

Race

There is no racial predilection for Angelman syndrome.[22]

Risk Factors

There are no risk factors for developing Angelman syndrome, since most of the cases occur due to a de novo deletion and there is a very small chance for this condition to be hereditary transmitted.[23]

Screening

Prenatal screening of 15q11.2-q13 region mutations is possible through DNA and/or chromosomal/FISH analysis of fetal cells acquired by chorionic villus sampling or amniocentesis.[15]

Screening for Angelman syndrome-suspected patients can be made by the following tests:


Natural History, Complications & Prognosis


Diagnosis

Diagnostic Criteria

The Angelman Syndrome Foundation defined criteria for diagnosis in 1995, and updated his criteria in 2006.[33]

The diagnosis of Angelman syndrome according to the Scientific Advisory Committee of the US Angelman syndrome Foundation (Williams et al 2006) is based on:[34][35][36]

Symptoms

Angelman syndrome is usually asymptomatic.

Physical Examination

Laboratory Findings

Imaging Findings

EEG

  • The most common EEG patern observed in Angelman syndrome are signals of high amplitude rhythmic 2–3 Hz activity (delta rythmicity) primarly over the frontal regions with superimposed interictal epileptiform discharges.[39] Other patern found are rhythmic theta, and epileptiform spike-wave discharges.[40]

Treatment

Medical Therapy

Surgery

Prevention

  • There are no primary preventive measures available for Angelman syndrome.

Living with Angelman syndrome

Although a diagnosis of Angelman syndrome is life-changing, it does not need to be life-destroying. Individuals with Angelman Syndrome are generally happy and contented individuals, who like human contact and play. Angelman syndrome individuals exhibit a profound desire for personal interaction with others. Communication can be difficult at first, but as an AS child develops, there is a definite character and ability to make themselves understood. It is widely accepted that their understanding of communication directed to them is much larger than their ability to return conversation.[30]
