The genetic complexity of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), combined with a heterogeneous clinical presentation, makes accurate assessment of their molecular bases and pathogenic mechanisms challenging. Our purpose is to reveal the pathogenic variant underlying a complex NDD through identification of the "full" spectrum of structural genomic and genetic variants. Therefore, clinical phenotyping and identifica...
We describe an infant female with a syndromic neurodevelopmental clinical phenotype and increased chromosome instability as cellular phenotype. Genotype characterization revealed heterozygous variants in genes directly or indirectly linked to DNA repair: a de novo X-linked HDAC8 pathogenic variant, a paternally inherited FANCG pathogenic variant and a maternally inherited BRCA2 variant of uncertain significance...
