The female and the fragile X. A study of 144 obligate female carriers.

American journal of medical genetics - 1 Jan 2000

Fryns J P

Abstract excerpt

In the present report we summarize our data on 144 obligate female carriers. The clinical and cytogenetic data are reviewed and discussed. In more than 30% of heterozygotes mental development is borderline to subnormal, and they may also present psychiatric disturbances of which psychotic behavio...
