X-linked female restricted facial dysmorphism-short stature-choanal atresia-intellectual disability (XFSFCA-ID) is a rare genetic disorder that affects only females. It is caused by a mutation in the X-linked gene, SHOX. Symptoms of XFSFCA-ID include facial dysmorphism (abnormal facial features), short stature, choanal atresia (narrowing of the nasal passage), and intellectual disability. Treatment for XFSFCA-ID is supportive and may include physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy.

The symptoms of X-linked female restricted facial dysmorphism-short stature-choanal atresia-Intellectual disability include:

-Facial features such as a broad forehead, wide-set eyes, a short nose, and a small chin
-Short stature
-Choanal atresia, which is a blockage of the nasal passages
-Intellectual disability, which can range from mild to severe
-Hearing loss
-Delayed development
-Speech and language delays
-Behavioral problems
-Seizures
-Growth hormone deficiency
-Hypothyroidism
-Kidney problems

The exact cause of X-linked female restricted facial dysmorphism-short stature-choanal atresia-intellectual disability is unknown. However, it is believed to be caused by a mutation in the SHOX gene, which is located on the X chromosome. This gene is responsible for the development of the skeleton and is involved in the regulation of growth hormone. Mutations in this gene can lead to a variety of skeletal abnormalities, including short stature, facial dysmorphism, and choanal atresia. Additionally, intellectual disability may be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.

Treatment for X-linked female restricted facial dysmorphism-short stature-choanal atresia-intellectual disability will depend on the individual's specific symptoms and needs. Treatment may include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and/or special education services. Surgery may be necessary to correct choanal atresia. Growth hormone therapy may be recommended to help with short stature. Medications may be prescribed to help with any associated behavioral or emotional issues. Additionally, counseling and support services may be recommended to help the individual and their family cope with the condition.
