Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic variants in the MFN2 gene are commonly associated with autosomal dominant (CMT2A2A) or recessive (CMT2A2B) Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, with possible involvement of the CNS. Here, we present a case of severe antenatal encephalopathy with lissencephaly, polymicrogyria and cerebellar atrophy. Whole genome analysis revealed a homozygous deletion c.1717-274_1734 del (NM_014874.4) in the MFN2 gene, leading...
