Congenital eyelid coloboma (CEC) is a rare genetic disease, manifesting as a congenital partial or total defect of the eyelid. In this study, we report a pedigree with CEC caused by a novel pathogenic variant in .
The proband was a 3-year-old girl who presented with a congenital coloboma of the left upper eyelid, accompanied by hypoplasia of the ipsilateral eyebrow. Karyotype analysis was normal. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) identified a novel pathogenic variant in (c.941+75G > T), which was classified as a likely pathogenic (LP) and variant. To date, this variant has not been reported.
Our study found a novel pathogenic variant in (c.941+75G > T), which broadens the CEC phenotype spectrum and gene variant spectrum, providing a basis for clinical diagnosis, genetic counseling, and treatment.
先天性眼睑缺损(CEC)是一种罕见的遗传性疾病,表现为先天性部分或完全性眼睑缺损。在本研究中,我们报告了一个由 中一个新的致病变异引起的 CEC 家系。
先证者是一名 3 岁女孩,表现为左上眼睑先天性缺损,伴有同侧眉毛发育不全。核型分析正常。全外显子测序(WES)在 中鉴定出一个新的致病变异(c.941+75G>T),该变异被分类为可能致病(LP)变异。迄今为止,该变异尚未见报道。
我们的研究在 中发现了一个新的致病变异(c.941+75G>T),拓宽了 CEC 的表型谱和 基因变异谱,为临床诊断、遗传咨询和治疗提供了依据。
