All patients showed moderate to severe developmental delay and/or intellectual disability. Height and weight were below 10th percentile and most showed microcephaly. In almost 50% of the patients, intrauterine growth retardation was detected. All patients showed a distinctive pattern of dysmorphic features, including hooded upper eyelid and epicanthus, full cheeks, tented philtrum, mouth constantly slightly open with an everted lower lip vermilion, high palate, and profuse drooling. Of 11 patients, 64% also presented with ophthalmological problems (mainly strabismus, nystagmus, and refraction errors) and 64% had musculoskeletal features (joint hypermobility, mild scoliosis, and easy fractures).</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>This work provides an improved characterization of the phenotypic spectrum of <em>RNU4-2</em> syndrome across different age groups and demonstrates that thorough clinical assessment of patients with an NDD can be enhanced significantly for this novel syndrome.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12717,"journal":{"name":"Genetics in Medicine","volume":"26 12","pages":"Article 101288"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2024-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142377758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
