Background:

Ring 14 chromosome syndrome is a rare chromosomal abnormality.
Understanding its clinical manifestations is essential for diagnosis and management.

Observation:

A case of ring 14 chromosome syndrome is presented.
A literature review of 28 cases was conducted.

Findings:

Epileptic seizures are a constant and early feature of ring 14 chromosome syndrome.
Specific seizure characteristics and associated congenital malformations were identified.

Implications:

Early and accurate diagnosis of ring 14 chromosome syndrome is facilitated by recognizing key clinical signs.
Karyotyping plays a vital role in identifying new cases and understanding the syndrome's prevalence.
