Abstract excerpt
We report a 7-year-old boy with NF1-negative optic pathway glioma harboring a novel germline ELP1 splice-acceptor variant (NM_003640.5:c.2205-2A>G) identified by whole-exome sequencing. The variant was likely pathogenic (ACMG/AMP: PVS1, PM2) and inherited from an asymptomatic father, consistent with incomplete penetrance, expanding the limited evidence linking germline ELP1 variation to gliomas.
