Preferred term

Prader-Willi syndrome  

Definition

  • Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare, inherited chromosomal disorder arising from deletion or disruption of genes in the proximal arm of chromosome 15. It was first described in 1956 by Andrea Prader, Heinrich Willi, Alexis Labhart, Andrew Ziegler, and Guido Fanconi of Switzerland. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Prader-Willi Syndrome]
