Long-term survival of a patient with Marshall-Smith syndrome

Abstract

Abstract. A 7-year-old girl presented with classic signs of typical Marshall-Smith syndrome, a rare early overgrowth syndrome. Her long-term survival, which is extremely uncommon in such patients, can be attributed to the successful securing and maintenance of an airway. Continued follow-up is extremely important in finding out how to ensure long-term survival of such patients.
