Noonan syndrome is a genetic disorder recognized in 1963 by Dr. Jacqadine Noonan, characterized by abnormal facial features, short stature, heart defects, bleeding problems, and skeletal malformations. It affects 1 in 1000 to 2500 people equally among males and females. Genetic testing and assessments of development are used to investigate potential cases, while management is problem-based without specific treatment and aims to address complications like heart issues, low self-esteem, and social difficulties related to physical abnormalities.
