Coffinův-Lowryho syndrom
V ústavech sociální péče (ÚSP) dlouhodobě žijí a jsou ošetřováni jedinci s poruchami, jejichž příčiny nejsouobjasněny. Před 20 lety jsme v rámci vyšetření k odhalení pacientů se syndromem fragilního X chromosomuklinicky diagnostikovali u jednoho muže Coffinův-Lowryho syndrom a nyní jsme mohli jeho neteři zajistitgenetickou péči. Psychologicko-etické problémy jsou zdůrazněny při vyšetřování jedinců z ÚSP.
