Tatton Brown Rahman Syndrome Community

Cycle 2

Tatton Brown Rahman Syndrome (TBRS) is a rare genetic disease caused by pathogenic variants in the DNMT3A gene (also called DNMT3A Overgrowth Syndrome). Individuals with TBRS have overgrowth—typically, tall stature, increased weight, and large head circumference (also known as macrocephaly)—mild to severe intellectual disability, and subtle but distinctive facial characteristics. The syndrome varies considerably in its severity.
