Oculodentodigital Dysplasia with a Novel Mutation in Diagnosed by Targeted Gene Panel Sequencing: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Oculodentodigital dysplasia (ODDD; MIM #164200), a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal craniofacial, dental, ocular, and digital features, is caused by mutations in the gap junction alpha-1 () gene. We report a case of a 6-year-old male who presented with dysmorphic facial features (short palpebral fissure, thin nose with hypoplastic alae nasi, and flat face), bilateral syndactyly, abnormal dentition, and proportionate short stature with growth hormone deficiency. A novel de novo heterozygous missense mutation (c.221A>C, p.H74P) in was identified by targeted gene panel sequencing. This is the first case report of a novel ODDD-causing mutation in confirmed by genetic analysis in Korea.
