Abstract excerpt
We describe a patient severely affected with multiple congenital anomalies, including brain malformations and skeletal dysplasia suggestive of cranioectodermal dysplasia (CED) ciliopathy, who unusually carries several homozygosity tracts involving homozygous missense mutations in SPAG17 (exon 8;...
