Abstract excerpt
VLDLR cerebellar hypoplasia is characterized by intellectual disability, non-progressive cerebellar ataxia, and seizures. The characteristic MRI findings include hypoplasia of the inferior portion of the cerebellar vermis and hemispheres, simplified cortical gyration, and a small brain stem. Biallelic VLDLR pathogenic variants cause loss-of-function of the encoded very low-density lipoprotein receptor. VLDLR...
