What is Rett Syndrome?
, 07 29th, 2008
Rett syndrome symptoms include cognitive impairment and difficulty with socialization, which generally improves by the time the child enters school. The rate of head growth is slower in those who have Rett’s and may include microcephaly (a very small head) as well as small hands and feet with repetitive hand movements such as wringing. Girls with Rett syndrome are prone to stomach problems and up to 80% also have seizures. About half of females are not ambulatory. Scoliosis, failure to grow, constipation, and lack of verbal skills are also very common manifestations of Rett’s syndrome, which occurs much more commonly in girls.
Rett syndrome is one of the disorders commonly identified as being under the umbrella of autism, along with Asperger’s syndrome, sensory integration disorder, and several others.
Autism treatments are always changing as autism awareness becomes more prevalent.
