| Abstract [eng] |
CHARGE syndrome is an autosomal dominant developmental disorder associated with a constellation of traits involving almost every organ and sensory system, in particular congenital anomalies, including choanal atresia and malformations of the heart, inner ear, and retina. Variants in CHD7 have been shown to cause CHARGE syndrome. Here, we report the identification of a novel de novo p.Asp2119_Pro2120ins6 duplication variant in a conserved region of CHD7 in a severely affected boy presenting with 3 and 5 of the CHARGE cardinal major and minor signs, respectively, combined with congenital umbilical hernia, congenital hernia at the linea alba, mildly hypoplastic inferior vermis, slight dilatation of the lateral ventricles, prominent metopic ridge, and hypoglycemic episodes. |
