Case report of intellectual developmental disorder with dysmorphic facies and behavioral abnormalities due to FBXO11 gene mutation / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of a case of intellectual developmental disorders with dysmorphic facies and behavioral abnormalities admitted in the Department of Neurology and Endocrinology, Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University in February 2020.The proband was a 3 years and 6 months old boy, who was hospitalized because of " convulsions for more than 1 year" . Physical examination revealed facial deformities.Gesell developmental schedule showed that adaptive and gross motor behavior development was severely retarded, and fine motor, language and personal-social behavior development was moderately retarded.Brain magnetic resonance imaging suggested schizencephaly.Electroencephalogram results indicated extensive discharges mainly in bilateral anterior head areas, and one myoclonic seizure was detected.Gene detection results disclosed the pathogenic variation of the proband, which was a heterozygote mutation (c.2480_2484del) in FBXO11 gene.High-throughput sequencing technology increases the possibility of identifying potential genetic mutations as the cause of disease.Patients with recurrent seizures, multi-malformation and general developmental delays should undergo gene detection in time to clarify the etiology.This technique can guide prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling.
