Intelligence and development in Aarskog syndrome.

Abstract:

AIM:To test the hypothesis that overall intelligence quotient (IQ) is decreased in patients with Aarskog syndrome. METHODS:21 boys under 17 years of age with a confirmed clinical diagnosis of Aarskog syndrome were assessed using the Griffiths mental development scales and the British ability scales. RESULTS:IQ ranged from 68 to 128 and followed a normal distribution. CONCLUSION:This study does not support the hypothesis that Aarskog syndrome is associated with a lowering of mean IQ.
