Disturbed Wnt Signalling due to a Mutation in CCDC88C Causes an Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hydrocephalus with Medial Diverticulum
1 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
The etiology of non-syndromic hydrocephalus is poorly understood. Via positional cloning in a consanguineous family with autosomal recessive hydrocephalus we have now identified a homozygous splice site mutation in the CCDC88C gene as a novel cause of a complex hydrocephalic brain malformation. The only living patient showed normal psychomotor development at the age of 3 years and 3 months and her deceased aunt,...
