This study includes previous reports of four affected individuals from two unrelated families with hedgehog acyl-transferase (HHAT)-related multiple congenital anomaly syndrome. Microcephaly, small cerebellar vermis, holoprosencephaly, agenesis of corpus callosum, intellectual disability, short stature, skeletal dysplasia, microphthalmia-anophthalmia, and sex reversal constitute the phenotypic spectrum of this condition with variable expression. We report an additional family with three affected conceptuses: two abortuses and one living proband. We did proband-parents trio exome sequencing and identified a biallelic in-frame deletion c.365_367del; (p.Thr122del) in exon 5 of HHAT. With this report, we delineate the phenotype and allelic heterogeneity of the HHAT-related multiple congenital anomaly syndrome.
本研究包括来自两个无关联家族的 4 名受影响个体的先前报告,这些个体患有 Hedgehog 酰基转移酶(HHAT)相关多发性先天异常综合征。该病症的表型谱包括小头畸形、小脑蚓部小、全前脑、胼胝体发育不全、智力障碍、身材矮小、骨骼发育不良、小眼球-无眼球和性别反转,其表现具有变异性。我们报告了另一个有三个受影响胚胎的家族:两个流产儿和一个存活的先证者。我们对先证者-父母三人身进行了外显子组测序,发现 HHAT 外显子 5 中存在 c.365_367del;(p.Thr122del)的双等位基因框内缺失。通过本报告,我们描绘了 HHAT 相关多发性先天异常综合征的表型和等位基因异质性。
