Mowat-Wilson syndrome: unraveling the complexities of diagnosis, treatment, and symptom management

Abstract Mowat-Wilson syndrome can be mentioned as one of the most severe and, at the same time, rare genetic abnormalities. The inheritance pattern of this disorder is an autosomal dominant pattern. In this disease, the ZEB2 gene becomes abnormal. The severity of the disease and associated signs and symptoms can vary widely but may include distinct facial features, developmental delay, intellectual disability, and Hirschsprung. MWS treatment may vary based on the specific symptoms that appear in each individual. This review will examine the gene involved in this disease, phenotype, clinical manifestations, ways of diagnosis, and treatment of this disease..
